"This report lists and emphasises numerous specific characteristics of small-scale coastal fishing and artisanal fishing that must be duly taken into account in the ongoing reform of the common fisheries policy (CFP). Small-scale fishing covers a huge variety of fisheries, types of fleet and fishing gear, which vary significantly between different Member States and fishing areas. However, regardless of geographical location, small-scale fishing has a number of common characteristics, including strong ties to the local communities, prevalence of family, micro- and small enterprises, fishing activity undertaken relatively close to the coast and involving shorter periods at sea, and use of fishing gear that is more selective and able to have less impact on resources and the marine environment. I voted in favour of this report due to the vast extent and huge socioeconomic importance of small-scale fishing along the entire European coastline, and because I agree that the specific characteristics of small-scale fishing justify different treatment for this fishing activity."@en1
