"Mr Ferreira has presented us with an excellent piece of work on coastal fishing, artisanal fishing and the reform of the common fisheries policy (CFP). We have already discussed the failure of the current CFP on numerous occasions in this House. Support for the scrapping of large numbers of vessels has not improved fishery resources and has cast into unemployment thousands of fishermen who mainly come from small communities. It is therefore vital that the new CFP takes advantage of the potential offered by small fishing communities, not only to combat the social and financial crisis, which has caused struggling families to abandon their towns and villages, but also to ensure the sustainable conservation of resources and the marine ecosystem. They must, therefore, be protected from large-scale fishing. I voted in favour of this report because I advocate a significant increase in the support for small-scale fishing, particularly in the outermost regions, decentralised management of this sector, and the use of more selective fishing gear. Improved infrastructure and safety conditions on board vessels, incentives for young workers, and the organisation of the sector are other areas that deserve special attention under the new CFP."@en1
