"On 2 January 2012, a new protocol was signed between the EU and Mozambique. This protocol authorises access for a total of 75 EU vessels. The Member States interested in these fishing opportunities are Spain, France, Portugal and the United Kingdom. The agreement with Mozambique is a strategic one, as it safeguards the continued existence of the European fleet’s fishing zone in the Indian Ocean, and may offer an excellent alternative in the light of increasing incidences of piracy in other exclusive economic zones further north. This new protocol promotes responsible and sustainable fishing and encourages the creation of cooperation based on respect for fisheries-related legislation and rules currently in force in both the EU and Mozambique. In accordance with the Council’s mandate, the protocol now includes certain conditionality clauses applied to the annual financial contribution, with particular reference to respect for the sectoral support programme and human rights, non-compliance with which may lead to its suspension. I voted for this recommendation for the aforementioned reasons."@en1
