"Article 349 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (formerly Article 229(2) of the EC Treaty) authorises the Council, on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting Parliament, to adopt specific measures for the benefit of the Union’s outermost regions, taking account of their social and economic situation. The fact that these regions are permanently disadvantaged by their insularity, remoteness from major markets, small size, difficult topography and climate and their economic dependence on a small number of products severely hinders their development and fully justifies the implementation of specially tailored measures. Such is the basis for the so-called ‘dock dues’ system, under which France is authorised, until 1 July 2014, to apply differential rates of the tax known as ‘dock dues’ to certain products manufactured in its four overseas departments (ODs). Given the importance of dock dues to the outermost regions I voted in favour of this report."@en1
