"Mr President, I want to explain the reason why I voted against Amendments 30 and 31 to Article 5 of the Gallagher report: for the very simple reason that it would separate the Bay of Biscay TAC from the rest of the area. The justification was simply that there are many small local fishing boats in that particular region that do not have a big impact on the stocks of mackerel in the waters.
The argument I would make is that every coastal community, virtually in every country, could make the same argument in order to protect the interests of their fishermen. The Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee does not seem to suggest that we can separate the fish stocks in the waters. Fish are a transient species, they move around, and this separation is not in accord with the Lisbon Treaty.
The plan for the long-term management of the stocks within the North Atlantic should not be fiddled with. If we have a common fisheries policy, it should be common for all, no exceptions, no exemptions, and the long-term consequences of this are quite serious."@en1
