"I voted in favour of the report because we need a new agreement balancing the needs of fishermen with the requirements for the recovery of bluefin tuna stock. The new rules on the reduction in the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) rightly seek a balance aiming to compensate European fishermen fishing for bluefin tuna, who are competing with the Americans and the Japanese. We are calling for appropriate transition processes during the conversion of those European fishing fleets which must be progressively decommissioned in proportion to the reduction in the TAC and the fishing season. Indeed, the measures focus on reducing the size of the fishing fleets, but also on extending the closed seasons for purse seines and tightening up controls, including those relating to the transfer of tuna from nets to cages. Our objective must be to balance the protection of the species with the socio-professional needs of fishermen and fish-processing processes and to avoid endangering thousands of jobs, already seriously threatened during the TAC reductions in recent years."@en1
