lpv:translated text	"Mr President, thank you, first of all, to Mr Gallagher for a very fine piece of work on the report. On behalf of the Group of the European Liberal, Democrat and Reform Party, I should like to begin by adding a few remarks on the financing of the fisheries agreements concluded by the EU with third countries. We have proposed that fishermen should make a greater contribution to the financing of these agreements. It would be of benefit to themselves, but it would also, at the same time, be in line with current developments in the direction of a structure more in keeping with a market economy. It is gratifying that the Commission has begun to prepare evaluation reports on the previous protocol. The evaluation of existing agreements is an extremely valuable tool for improving the fisheries agreements. These must, of course, be to the advantage of European fishermen, who do in fact benefit from them, but also be to the advantage of local fishermen in the countries concerned with which the agreements have been made. The agreement should relate to the surplus resources that cannot be caught by local fishermen. Sustainability must be ensured. That is the EU’s responsibility. The fisheries agreements are exceedingly important to certain regions of Europe in which, in addition to jobs in the sector itself, there is a range of additional businesses dependent upon fisheries. We should focus more upon the degree to which third countries make use of subsidies for the development of local fisheries and ensure that the development aid we provide is used in the best way possible and, especially, to benefit local fishermen. These agreements are important to the Community, especially in the light of the fact that the fisheries agreement with Morocco was not renewed."@en1
