"− The preservation of bluefin tuna stocks is an issue that the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), to which I belong, has always advocated given the alarming threat that this species of fish will be eradicated. Parliament’s report, the adoption of which I am supporting today, seeks to find a solution that balances growing environmental concerns at the near disappearance of the bluefin tuna and the economic and social importance of the fishing sector in the European Union by incorporating the conservation and management measures adopted by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas into EU legislation. These measures include a new, complex programme of documentation that must accompany the batch of tuna at all stages of the monitoring chain and the banning of the use of chartered fishing boats from now on. It would be desirable for these measures to be applied in a way that is effective and proportional to the objective of preserving the species in question, so as not to compromise the economic and social viability of various coastal communities of the EU, above all those that are most dependent on fishing activities, as is the case with Portugal and its outermost regions, the Azores and Madeira."@en1
