"Sustainable management of fisheries resources is one of the EU’s concerns, in particular, when it comes to endangered species. This report, by Mr Romeva i Rueda, concerns the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EC) No 302/2009 and establishing a multiannual recovery plan for bluefin tuna in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean. As tuna is a much sought-after species, it is vital that there be legislation regulating the catch that does not jeopardise existing stocks of this species. Moreover, illegal fishing is a serious threat to its recovery. Although the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas has a recovery plan with measures that have been in force since July 2011, the fact is that these have not yet been transposed into EU law, and this is undermining the credibility of the EU. I understand, however, that the restrictions should apply to everyone, and not only to European fishermen. I voted for this report because it combines the economic consequences of reducing catches with combating illegal fishing and the need to ensure the maintenance of the species in future."@en1
