"Mr President, I should also like to begin by expressing my thanks and congratulations for the magnificent work of Ms Lövin in this most important area of combating illegal fishing. This is one of the worst threats, not only to biodiversity, but also to those parts of the sector which depend specifically on healthy resources and which want to do things in the right way. However, in order to do this, we need greater coherence. It is unacceptable that, as we have been told, ships and companies that have been fishing illegally are in receipt of public, institutional funding from the European Union or from Member States, as is happening in Spain in the case of Vidal Armadores. This is unacceptable. Therefore, we need measures to ensure more investigation, more monitoring capability, and, above all, deterrent and exemplary penalties. We have an excellent opportunity to do this through the reform of Community fishing policy. For this reason, I welcome not only the report but also the Commission’s statements, and I hope that we will take this opportunity which, unfortunately, we have neglected to take in the past."@en1
