"‘Finning’ is unacceptable from an environmental point of view because it threatens the sustainability of some shark species targeted by this practice, from the social and economic point of view because it involves squandering a source of food with commercial value, and also from the moral point of view because it shows a total disrespect for animal life. Although finning has been banned since 2003 in European waters and by the European fleet, the Commission has decided to present a proposal aimed at ending the derogation from the ban on removing shark fins on board EU fishing vessels. The proposal will improve the protection of sharks, allowing the EU to make an active contribution to global efforts to eradicate this cruel practice in other parts of the world too."@en1
