"I voted in favour of the overarching communication on the common fisheries policy (CFP). This non-binding report is acceptable insofar as its content anticipates and influences forthcoming debates on the basic CFP Regulation. It has enabled us to make some progress on the Commission’s proposals, which is important for future negotiations, and which, I hope, will allow for further improvements. In the face of the EU’s very controversial proposal to introduce transferable fishing concessions, a tool for liberalising the fishing industry, Parliament spoke in particular in favour of a voluntary system, allowing Member States to decide whether to implement it or not, which is an encouraging start. Parliament also noted that we should reach the maximum sustainable yield by 2020, and not exceed it, a notion thought to be too vague. The proposal to land all by-catches, which the industry has great difficulty in implementing because of technical constraints, has also been watered down, in favour of a gradual implementation on a case-by-case basis, depending on the characteristics and realities of the different fisheries. There should be further discussion about the technical feasibility of implementing such a measure."@en1
