"We are all aware that the planet’s resources are not inexhaustible. This is all the more pertinent when we are discussing resources that are directly linked to food. The increase in the global population requires ever greater resources, and we cannot allow ecosystems to be squandered. This report, drafted by Pat the Cope Gallagher, addresses the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the application of certain measures in relation to countries that practise or allow non-sustainable fishing, thus jeopardising the conservation of fish stocks. At issue is the lack of a sustainable fisheries policy, in particular in relation to the fishing of mackerel. What has happened in Iceland, and not only there, is unacceptable – its catches have been unilaterally increased. There needs to be an agreement among the Member States as each State cannot simply do what it likes. I voted for the rapporteur’s proposals as I agree that fishing should be sustainable, both inside and outside the EU."@en1
