"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, I truly welcome this report and I congratulate Ms Lövin on a job very well done. Illegal and unreported fishing is a form of organised crime and a threat to our seas and to all of us. Nineteen per cent of global fishing is illegal and unreported and we, in the European Union, are subsidising this activity to the tune of EUR 1.1 billion a year. I welcome the proposals in this report on the technical measures needed to combat illegal fishing and achieve real traceability of fisheries products. We need international cooperation, as Ms Damanaki said, especially in identifying and recording the vessels involved in illegal activities. Finally, I would like to comment on the question of the European coastline: I consider that, if we fail to take this measure, we shall be unable to change the situation; we shall be unable to combat illegal fishing."@en1
