"Mr President, I should like to add my support to your speech on
and
.
Before I begin on the Stevenson and Souchet reports, I find it quite disgraceful that colleagues in this House do not recognise that half a million EU citizens die every year because of tobacco use. A tobacco advertising ban would be an extremely good measure to try and help public health and save lives.
On the Stevenson report, I should like to point out that we voted to maintain the 6-12 mile zones to preserve historic fishing rights and derogations relating to boxes in the North Sea. We also believe that benefit from fishing agreements should be taken into account in quota setting and that poverty eradication is a key aim of fishing agreements. We are very sceptical of an amendment deleting the recital which noted that joint ventures can be used to massage fleet reduction figures.
On the Souchet report, we voted against Amendments Nos 10 and 11, and Recitals H and I for sustainability reasons and abstained on the final vote for very similar reasons, i.e. the environmental impact and making sure sustainable development is at the heart of the policy."@en1
