lpv:translated text	"− The EP resolution on the reform of the common fisheries policy (CFP) is important for both Lithuanian fishermen and the fishing industry as a whole. I supported two amendments to this document, the first of which proposed allocating subsidies from the EU budget to renovate fishing vessels (these subsidies were suspended in 2002, i.e. before Lithuania joined the EU). The second amendment proposed increasing fish quotas. During the vote in plenary the first amendment was rejected while the second was adopted. The reform of fisheries policy, which was approved in 2002 and which is still being implemented, did not provide the fishing fleets in any of the new EU Member States with subsidies for fleet renewal, putting them in a very difficult position. The majority of vessels that needed to be repaired were broken up. With this reform the old EU Member States eliminated potential competitors from the market, forgetting that fishing is not just a source of jobs and income for people in the new EU Member States, but a tradition and way of life. Lithuanian fishermen suffered damages including financial losses. Unfortunately, the majority of MEPs did not approve the amendment on subsidies for the renewal of fishing vessels in EU Member States. I therefore voted against this document, expressing my opposition to the proposed reform of the EU’s CFP."@en1
