"I voted for this joint motion for a resolution, pursuant to Rule 115(5) of the Rules of Procedure, which replaces the motions by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance, the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament and the European Conservatives and Reformists Group on the contribution of the common fisheries policy to the production of public goods. Fishing, one of humanity’s oldest activities, is worthy of particular attention from the European Union, not just because of a survival issue given its importance relating to food, but also because of its importance to the world economy. In fact, several pieces of legislation have been adopted, both by international organisations and by this Parliament; the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (2008/56/EC) is particularly important. I voted for this joint motion for a resolution for the following reasons: 1. It acknowledges fishing as a sector producing high-quality foodstuffs; 2. Emphasis is given to its economic and social component in culture, in recreation and tourism, in science, in energy, in the environment and in education; 3. It ensures the sustainable exploitation of fish stocks; 4. It consolidates policies for organising maritime areas; 5. It encourages the establishment of small fishing communities; and 6. It contributes to hitting Europe 2020 strategy targets as a driver of European economic growth."@en1
