"Today in plenary we voted on the report by Ms Patrão Neves. Many species of sharks are being very heavily fished. In recent years some have been severely targeted and put under serious threat as a result of the demand for shark products, fins in particular. In 2003 a ban on the removal of shark fins on board vessels was introduced. The resolution approved today removes derogations, in other words the special permits allowing removal of fins at sea on board vessels that could demonstrate they would utilise all of the shark parts. Subsequently, fins and carcasses could be landed at different ports, making exact counting difficult and therefore also preventing detection of those who violated the ban, throwing the finless shark carcasses into the sea."@en1
