"This Protocol will allow European fishing vessels to fish in the seas off Morocco, including in waters off the disputed territory of Western Sahara, in return for a financial contribution. Parliament rejected the Protocol in 2011 over concerns that the people of Western Sahara would not benefit from the money. I voted against this revised report as I believe that, despite its efforts, the Commission has not adequately demonstrated that the Agreement has received consent from the Sahrawi people and will be of benefit to the population of Western Sahara. I have previously supported a proposal that there should not be a new fisheries agreement with Morocco while the Western Sahara issue remains unresolved and in voting on this report I stood by that position. The EU should promote international law and human rights in all our dealings with third countries and I am not convinced that, as it is, this Agreement has properly taken account of the human rights of the Sahrawi people."@en1
