lpv:translated text	"I deplore the practice of the removal of the fins of sharks and I think steps must be taken to ensure that this does not happen on board vessels. Removal of fins of sharks, or so-called ‘finning’, is already regulated under EU law, which banned the practice but provided for a derogation allowing finning on board vessels subject to special fishing permits. We should reflect on the gravity of this horrendous practice from an environmental point of view in order to protect certain animal species, but also in economic terms: since finning involves removal the fins of sharks, with the remaining parts of the animal’s body being thrown into the sea, it prevents a source of food from being placed on the market. For these reasons, I voted in favour."@en1
