lpv:translated text	". This positive and balanced report gives the Treaty a favourable verdict. It is very disappointing, however, that it does not take account of the opinion of Parliament’s Committee on Fisheries, the only European body with specific powers in the area of fisheries which discussed the amendments introduced to the conservation of marine biological resources. As the Committee on Fisheries concluded, ‘within the context of the other exclusive competences of the EU which are detailed in the draft Constitution, the inclusion of the conservation of marine biological resources is anomalous and unjustified’. Unlike the other areas in which the Treaty has undergone substantial amendments, marine biological resources are not solely the institutional concern of politicians. They are the concern of the maritime communities, fishermen, scientists and environmentalists, whose opinions should never have been ignored. Indeed, an opinion poll in Portugal found that only 4% of the public supported this solution, as opposed to 86% in favour of shared or national power. The conservation of marine biological resources cannot be anybody’s specific competence. It is the duty of every citizen, and in particular of the citizens who depend on those resources for their livelihoods, people who cannot be ignored by the European institutions and by the representatives of the Member States. I trust that this ‘unjustified anomaly’ will soon be rectified."@en1
