I voted in favour of the report on the Fisheries Partnership Agreement between the European Community on the one hand, and the Government of Denmark and the Home Rule Government of Greenland, on the other hand. The Fisheries Partnership Agreement with Greenland was established after the latter’s withdrawal from the EC in 1985, on the basis that the Community could retain its traditional fishing rights by paying annual financial compensation in return. The Fisheries Partnership Agreement between the EU and the former Home Rule Government of Greenland was adopted on 28 June 2007 with the current Protocol, which sets out the yearly fishing opportunities and financial contributions until 31 December 2012. Greenland’s economy is highly dependent on fisheries and the export of fishery products to the EU. In 2012, exports to EU markets amounted to EUR 331 million (92.7 % of total exports), while imports from the EU were nearly twice as high (EUR 641 million). The fisheries sector generates 6 500 jobs, but only 2 000 full-time jobs are offered directly by the fish catching sector. I welcome the renewal of the Protocol for a three-year period from 1 January 2013."@en1
