"Today I, along with my fellow Labour MEPs, voted for investment in more fish, not new boats. I did so because I oppose subsidies for building new vessels, which would have been a step backwards and could potentially jeopardise the reform process. I believe that this vote represents a positive step in the introduction of stronger measures and penalties to ensure that fishermen keep to the rules of the reformed common fisheries policy. I also supported more funds for data collection, control and enforcement that will help ensure that fishing is sustainable and stocks remain healthy into the future. Although Labour would have liked to see a more ambitious outcome that ruled out all measures known to contribute to overfishing, the steps that the whole Parliament has taken to delete the most harmful subsidies are a key sign of its continued commitment to reformed rules for sustainable fishing."@en1
