"Mr President, at a time when we are reforming the common fisheries policy and requiring our own fishermen to ensure that their activities are sustainable, it is fair to ensure where possible a level playing field for fisheries imports.
I supported this proposal enthusiastically because it enables the European Union to take action against those countries that fish unsustainably. I very much support measures in the text whereby we will be able to impose quantitative restrictions on imports of fish into the Union from third countries.
But I want to make a particular point. One of the reasons why I was so enthusiastic to support this is that it is time that we called on the Commission to take note of Parliament’s will. This was a strong vote in favour of the report. They must take note of Parliament’s will on this issue and they must make sure that they find a way of making sure that we are compatible with our international obligations, not finding lots of reasons to tell us why we will not be. The rapporteur and the work he has done on this issue deserve that kind of respect."@en1
