"The main objective of this report is to transpose into EU law the amendments set out by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT), a multilateral organisation for the management of tuna fisheries, in its multiannual recovery plan for bluefin tuna stocks. The rapporteur highlights the difficulty of establishing a management plan for the bluefin tuna fishery. He also states that the difficulty of establishing a management plan for the bluefin tuna fishery may be related to the ICCAT’s lack of financial, administrative and technological resources for controlling fishing. It is worth noting that ‘the ICCAT recovery plan is less ambitious than EU domestic legislation’. Concerns have been raised about the lack of up-to-date statistical data regarding bluefin tuna stocks and the validity of existing data. The rapporteur supports the Commission proposal, with the amendments it has introduced. We would reassert the principle that decisions on the management of living marine resources should be based on scientific knowledge and that this should be supported by data that is as concrete as possible. This report took that concern on board, hence our vote in favour. We would, however, highlight the rapporteur’s own caveats relating to the aforementioned issues; it is important that these be addressed in the future."@en1
