".
By changing the legislation on structural assistance in the fisheries sector, the Commission is trying, purely and simply, to put an end to public aid for the building of new vessels. It is crucial that public aid for the renewal of the fleet should be maintained. I therefore want to give the rapporteur my unequivocal support.
I consider that addressing the shortage of fish stocks is not just a question of scrapping vessels. Funds for modernising the existing fleet cannot simply be redirected to scrapping vessels, thus bringing into question already adopted budgetary measures that will be in force until 2006. Reducing the fleet is perfectly compatible with maintaining public aid.
We cannot, however, hide our heads in the sand. Regulatory measures are needed to prevent public aid from leading to an increase in fleet capacity. I therefore support the creation of a single register of vessels (classed by segment, capacity and power), the purpose of which will be precisely to control the growth of the fleets.
I am in favour of tighter control with dissuasive penalties, namely the loss of public aid for fleet renewal, against those Member States that do not comply with the reduction in capacity laid down in the multiannual guidance programme."@en1
