"The economic and social crisis that is affecting the fisheries sector in Italy, which has been hit by management costs of over 40% and losses of income of around 25% in the last three years, is hurting the less competitive elements in the fleet most of all. The inshore fishing industry has been hit particularly badly in that it is more affected by the highly unstable fuel prices and the rise in variable costs.
In addition to economic difficulties, the inshore fishing sector also has to face the lack of a specific legislative framework. The European Union must take a realistic attitude and agree to adopt definitions that are not too strict. The future regulation for the Mediterranean, for instance, should provide for adjustments to be put forward at a national level.
The Commission needs to recognise small-scale inshore fishing and traditional fishing as a special case within the common fisheries policy, while taking account of the fact that certain coastal areas, particularly in island or outermost regions, are heavily dependent on fishing and the satellite industries that it generates. It needs to analyse how adequate the current instruments are for responding to the sector’s needs, and it should involve representatives from the industry to a greater extent in the decision-making process."@en1
