"The EU currently has 16 Fisheries Partnership Agreements (FPAs) in force. Through these, the EU fleet has access to fish stocks which, for one reason or another, the partners cannot or do not intend to catch. We are currently aiming to renew the FPA with the Solomon Islands for another three years. As the rapporteur says, ‘the EU is proposing to provide the same financial support to the Solomon Islands under the new agreement as it did under the previous agreement, even though fewer fishing authorisations are to be granted and the allowable catch volume is lower’. This is especially relevant when we consider that, under the previous version of the FPA, four Portuguese longliners were fishing in the exclusive economic zone of the Solomon Islands, which is now no longer possible because no fishing opportunities were negotiated for longliners. It is true, however, that a clause has been included allowing the introduction of new fishing opportunities where necessary."@en1
