"This report is grossly inadequate given the ecological disaster created by the critically low level of the bluefin tuna population in the Mediterranean. While the scientific consensus is that we urgently need to enforce the fixed quotas at the very least, this mixed text still does not require Member States to introduce an effective mechanism to monitor and control fishing in the Mediterranean, nor does it call for the establishment of spawning sanctuaries. It does not even mention the time limits granted by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) for the adjustment of fishing effort in accordance with fixed quotas. As a result, it does not specify the necessary financial compensation to be granted to tuna vessels.
What we need is a plan for sustainable fishing and for the effective and shared protection of the common good that is the sea and all that lives in it. I am opposed to devastating offshore factories. I am in favour of artisanal fishing by coastal populations. This report is far from satisfying this dual requirement. I abstain."@en1
