"This vote represented the first time that Parliament has had an equal say with the European Council on the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). Along with my Labour colleagues, I was pleased to have a chance to support the introduction of far-reaching reforms to help preserve European fish stocks, and the fishing industry, for future generations. The reforms called for an end to the hugely wasteful practice of discarding fish back into the ocean to keep within quota limits and also introduce a legal requirement to end overfishing by obliging fisheries ministers to set sustainable quotas which respect the Maximum Sustainable Yields (MSY) for each species. The reforms will also allow day-to-day management of fisheries to be done at a regional level, by people who know the local area, and will allow Member States to award larger quotas to fleets that practise sustainable fishing methods – helping our small-scale fishermen."@en1
