"Mr President, the fisheries policy should be reformed, because it is too greatly and too tightly controlled from Brussels. One of the things that is important is sustainable innovation in fisheries.
Unfortunately, sustainable innovation in fisheries is not always possible. I am referring specifically to the fishing technique called pulse trawling. In this method of fishing, the fish are startled from the seabed with electric shocks of a few volts. The advantage here is that the seabed is not damaged and the fuel consumption of ships is reduced by 40%. There is much less by catch and the yield is much higher. So, perfect!
Unfortunately, every form of electrofishing is currently prohibited and thereby also pulse trawling. There is a temporary exemption, but I would urge the Commissioner to provide plenty of scope in the new fisheries policy for this new, sustainable and innovative fishing technique."@en1
