"Mr President, as Mr Hudghton said, and as Members of the House will recall, I rose on Monday to say that I thought an element in this report is inadmissible because it lacks a legal basis. This is rather a "doomsday" weapon and I would be unhappy if we had to use it where there is a simpler method available to us for reconsidering the question before it finally comes back to the House.
It is a very important point. Paragraph 6 of the Cunha report, as I read it – and as many of my colleagues read it – effectively proposes undercutting the principle of relative stability which has, since 1983, been the very foundation of the common fisheries policy and which indeed Commissioner Fischler at his hearing before this House said was fundamental to the common fisheries policy. Introduction of a scheme of quota penalties would undercut it badly and that is what paragraph 6 suggests. That should be referred back and considered in committee, both in the Committee on Fisheries and in the Committee on Legal Affairs. I have pleasure in asking the House to support Mr Hudghton’s motion."@en1
