"Mr President, after other species such as cod, it is now the turn of eels to be threatened by a fall in stocks, of more than 95% for elvers, for example. Since the species migrates three times over - in the Atlantic, from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean, for example, and from the sea to the river - the fate of eels clearly serves to remind us that the world is interdependent, especially when the sudden rise in demand from the East encourages fishing in Europe.
That being said, the everyday reality for eels is one of being caught by locals, for example in pools on the edge of the Mediterranean in the South of France. There, hundreds of fishermen make their living from that activity. To ban them from fishing for two weeks a month, while booms, cormorants, power stations and oceanic disturbances place a strain on the life cycle of eels, is unjust and ineffective, and that is where subsidiarity must come into play. Let us leave it to the fishermens’
the professional organisations - to look into the fate of eels more closely. The survival of eels does not depend on Community federalism, but on the action of local professional organisations."@en1
