"As the first multi-annual plan under the reformed CFP, the Baltic Sea plan will set a precedent – intended or not – for future multi-annual plans. It is therefore essential that the Baltic Sea plan maintains the ambition set out in the CFP, and is effective in its overall objective of restoring stocks of cod, herring and sprat, as well as ensuring that there are plans in place to maintain healthy stock levels of the compromised species of plaice, flounder, turbot and brill.
I was initially concerned that the Commission’s proposal did not make any allowance for FMSY ranges and indirectly appeared to condone overfishing – in contravention of the objectives of the reformed CFP.
I strongly supported the position of the Fisheries Committee to set the upper limit of fishing mortality rates as FMSY, and therefore I have supported all amendments to Article 4 which improve the Commission text. The inclusion of exploitation rates of FMSY as the upper limit for mortality is urgently required to promote sustainable fisheries in Baltic waters.
I have also supported a number of amendments which promote the protection of sea birds and marine mammals in keeping with the EU’s Marine Strategy Framework."@en1
