". The Mediterranean plays a highly significant part in the European Union fisheries sector. The Community’s Mediterranean fleet, representing 22% of Union vessels in terms of tonnage, is clear evidence of that. In view of this, I voted in favour in order to support the rapporteur’s position and to welcome the Commission’s views in this Action Plan, especially when it refers to the specificity of the Mediterranean as an essential parameter in the ongoing reform. This perspective is made all the more relevant by the current discrepancy between the real importance of that specificity and the attention paid to it in the context of the common fisheries policy (CFP). The rapporteur has drawn up a pertinent set of proposals which will contribute to a reasonable consideration of Mediterranean particularities and lead to the development of a model specific to the area. I particularly agree with the following proposals: the assessment of CFP impact in this area; the preference for the decentralised approach to local or self-management solutions, as is essential for sustainable fishing and full compliance with the principle of subsidiarity; the promotion of improvements in scientific research, and consequently the adaptation of the Action Plan to the conclusions drawn from the results achieved; and the rapid setting-up of negotiations with coastal third countries, as well as the involvement of countries which, although not Mediterranean themselves, have important strategic positions in this area, especially those that are Member States of the European Union."@en1
