"I welcome the effort made by the rapporteur in bringing together issues from different policy areas and creating a comprehensive and proactive approach to the problem of bluefin tuna conservation and recovery. The report mentions that the standard ICCAT regulations are only a response to identified problems. We must, however, take advantage of our joint force of 27 Member States. I support the rapporteur’s proposals for unilateral EU measures which would help us to implement our environmental objectives. We should also look to the abnormally inflated demand. One country’s market – that of Japan – threatens the preservation of bluefin tuna in the whole Mediterranean Sea. I voted in favour of this report because I support calls for the practices of limited and reasonable consumption. The monitoring of food wastage could also significantly contribute to the preservation of bluefin tuna via market relations. While current excessive fishing is a response to current inflated demand, a decrease in demand would provoke a decrease in fishing."@en1
