"I supported the extension of the EU-Morocco Fisheries Partnership Agreement because it would allow vessels sailing under the Latvian flag to continue fishing in Moroccan waters and provide jobs and tax revenue. Latvian fishing vessels have been fishing in the Central Eastern Atlantic fishing areas, including the waters belonging to the Kingdom of Morocco, since 2004. In 2009 and 2011, there were two Latvian fishing vessels fishing there, and in 2010 there were even three. The total annual catch obtained was 7 667.5 tonnes in 2009, 8 877 tonnes in 2010, and 5 739 tonnes up to November 2011. Together with the catch in the neighbouring waters of the Mauritanian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), this accounts for more than half of Latvia’s total catch. Therefore, it is crucial that these vessels may continue fishing in Moroccan waters."@en1
