lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I welcome the limited reforms passed today. All credit should go to Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall for his sterling efforts on this issue, and also to the ECR group. I fear, however, that this is still rather like spraying perfume on a long-dead fish: the bad odour lingers. The common fisheries policy (CFP) has been a disaster. Not only has it failed to secure fish stocks, but it has also failed to help the employment situation in fishing, around the UK and around Europe. The fishing community in the east of England has been devastated by the CFP. And the issue of discards in particular, the fact that good, perfectly edible fish – up to 90% of them in some areas – are dumped back in the sea, is a complete disgrace. Given that Norway and Iceland have not had a policy of discards, and call such a policy criminal, why has it taken the EU so long to follow them? Provisions such as Amendment 119, which I voted against today, seeking to allow discards, are still a disgrace. The problem continues."@en1
