".
We believe that the European Union’s fishing agreement policy must be reviewed. Over-exploitation of fishing waters pushes people in developing countries into ever greater poverty and robs the marine environment of a vital link in the food chain.
We believe that, if the EU concludes a fishing agreement with a third country, the total amount of the financial compensation for this country must be provided by those EU Member States whose fishing vessels utilise the opportunities supplied by the agreement in question. Those Member States must then each themselves decide whether they, in their turn, are to fund this expenditure by deducting taxes on their respective fishing vessels. That is a position adopted on grounds of principle by the June List when it comes to the EU’s fishing agreements with third countries.
There are individual amendments by Parliament that are commendable, for example wordings concerning the sustainable management of fishery resources. These proposals are, however, extremely limited."@en1
