50 amendments...
Amendment 7 #
Motion for a resolution Recital A a (new) Aa. whereas the reform of the CFP must take account of EU policy in the field of the environment, as enshrined in the Treaties, and of the Bali Declaration of December 2007,
Amendment 9 #
Motion for a resolution Recital C C. whereas the basic aim of the CFP, as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, is to ensure the sustainable development and economic and social viability of the fisheries sector and the conservation of marine
Amendment 10 #
Motion for a resolution Recital C a (new) Ca. having regard to the diversity of European seas and the specific nature of the fleet and fishing practices in each of those seas,
Amendment 15 #
Motion for a resolution Recital D D. whereas
Amendment 31 #
Motion for a resolution Recital I I. whereas, in order to be effective, the CFP should be restructured with a view to the multidisciplinary involvement of all groups directly or indirectly connected with the sector, in particular fishermen, vessel owners, industrialist, the scientific community and politicians, whilst always advocating a global, integrated view of the sector,
Amendment 36 #
Motion for a resolution Recital J J. whereas, despite the significant progress made following the revision of the CFP in 2002, serious problems relating to
Amendment 40 #
Motion for a resolution Recital J J. whereas, despite the significant progress made following the revision of the CFP in 2002, serious problems relating to fleet overcapacity and the scarcity of fishery resources still remain in some regions and have worsened in recent years,
Amendment 49 #
Motion for a resolution Recital K K. whereas the maintenance of modern, competitive and safe fishing fleets is not incompatible with the reduction in fishing capacity, which has in fact been carried out by various Member States in order to bring it more closely into line with the availability of resources; whereas fisheries is one of the economic activities most affected by the impoverishment of fish stocks caused by the poor state of health of marine ecosystems and whereas its future sustainability will depend on the ability to reverse this trend, by restoring health and balance to the marine ecosystem as a whole. The sector itself must therefore contribute to efforts to restore a balance that will allow future sustainability and ensure increased viability in the medium and long term,
Amendment 60 #
Motion for a resolution Recital M a (new) Ma. whereas the placing on the market of fishery products carrying accredited food certification from the point of catch through fattening or processing (depending on the industry involved) to marketing should be based on criteria of environmental sustainability and should contribute to greater awareness of sustainable fishing among both producers and consumers,
Amendment 61 #
Motion for a resolution Recital M b (new) Mb. whereas the FAO has carried out significant work in the field of the ecological labelling of fishery and aquaculture products, and in May 2005 the Committee on Fisheries drew up guidelines on this topic for consideration by the Commission,
Amendment 114 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 4 4. Stresses that despite having been extensively reformed in 2002, the CFP, 27 years after its establishment, is faced with serious problems whose main features are
Amendment 127 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 5. Points out that Parliament has in previous terms drawn attention to the fact that CFP rules were not being sufficiently complied with and has repeatedly called on Member States to improve controls, harmonise inspection and sanction criteria, ensure transparency of inspection findings and strengthen the Community inspection systems, with regard to all marine activities which may have adverse effects on stocks and ecosystems;
Amendment 148 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 10 10. Stresses that, notwithstanding the degree of complexity of some procedures for modifying fisheries management models and the difficulties, in particular legal problems, which may appear in this process, these and not insuperable, as shown by the successful application of other management models in other parts of the world, such as transmissible fishery rights, whose application should be confined to the industrial fisheries sector;
Amendment 160 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 13 a (new) 13a. Considers that the financial resources to be negotiated within the framework of the new financial perspective 2014-2020 should make provision for an increased budget devoted to the reform of the CFP that will create the necessary financial conditions for the full implementation and practical development of the reforming guidelines that have been adopted;
Amendment 165 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 14 14. Considers that CFP commitments to reversing the economic and social consequences of
Amendment 172 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 16 16. Maintains that the reform of the CFP must continue to observe the precautionary principle set out in the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries and in the New York Agreement, so as to prevent any risk to the survival and/or sustainability of species in the future;
Amendment 179 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 17 a (new) 17a. Considers it necessary to guarantee effective protection for coastal areas that are highly environmentally sensitive (the main breeding and spawning grounds for biological resources);
Amendment 188 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 18 b (new) 18b. Believes that the criteria for defining the Community fleet should go beyond simplistic numerical parameters (such as length, power and tonnage), opening the way to the possibility of listing a set of criteria common to all regions (such as the level of organisation of undertakings of which vessels form part, the area in which they operate and catch levels), but with differentiated weighting factors in each region, which would provide a uniform and flexible model capable of responding fairly to the range of different situations in the Community fleet;
Amendment 193 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 18 a (new) 18 a. Stresses that Member States shall, as stated in the new control regulation adopted on 10 November, Art 55(1) “ensure that recreational fisheries on their territory and in Community waters are conducted in a manner compatible with the objectives and rules of the Common Fisheries Policy”;
Amendment 205 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 19 a (new) 19a. Believes that increasing use should be made of information technologies relevant to the sector and computerised systems for collecting and transferring data, for both regional and national administrations and professionals and producers' organisations, thus making information more accessible and transparent;
Amendment 206 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 19 b (new) 19b. Believes that the mandatory use of new technologies on board fishing vessels (for the purposes of fisheries inspection and control) should be introduced gradually and with a transition period in order to make it easier for the sector to adapt;
Amendment 224 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 22 22. Reiterates that fishing is a vital activity, not just in food terms, but also in social
Amendment 225 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 22 a (new) 22a. Considers it necessary to create interprofessional clusters in the fisheries sector, involving owners, workers, processors, intermediaries, etc., which would promote dialogue between the various stakeholders in the sector upstream and downstream;
Amendment 234 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 23 a (new) 23a. Takes the view that the present EFF and future structural funds for the fisheries sector must continue to support fleet renewal and modernisation, above all with regard to small-scale coastal and artisanal fishing, since this support is based on criteria of safety (which minimise occupational accidents), hygiene and comfort, as well as environmental protection, fuel economy and other criteria which do not involve any increase in fishing capacity for the fleets concerned;
Amendment 241 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 25 25. Believes that all fishing operators, men and women alike, need to be accorded the same status in all Member States, especially as regards access to social security, and that a strategy must be put in place to provide financial support to fishing professionals who
Amendment 250 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 26 26. Considers it necessary to ensure higher first-sale prices of f
Amendment 257 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 27 27. Calls on the Commission to draw up a specific eco-labelling programme with a view to enhancing the image of fishery products and promoting consumer health, and to base it on strict monitoring and complete traceability of fisheries, as regards both catches in the wild and aquaculture products, as well as all processed products;
Amendment 271 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 30 Amendment 276 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 30 a (new) 30a. Considers that long-term management plans shall be required to be established for all fisheries or geographical fishing regions; calls for these to be based upon scientific advice, meeting consistent criteria that will ensure an ecosystem approach, and regularly monitored and assessed, without detracting from the minimum flexibility required to enable them to be adapted swiftly to new circumstances affecting the broader context;
Amendment 283 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 31 31. Maintains that the management system for the fisheries sector has to abandon the traditional top-down approach, laying emphasis instead on the principle of regionalisation and subsidiarity (horizontal decentralisation), the redefinition and increased flexibility of the principle of relative stability and the participation of professionals in the sector, taking into account the multifarious specific features of the Community fleet; firmly rejects any attempt to adopt a universal Community fisheries management model, in a form serving to impose uniformity;
Amendment 301 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 32 32. Urges the Commission to carefully explore the possibility of adopting new fisheries management mechanisms, as opposed to the TAC and quota system, for example fishing effort management and the use of transferable fishing rights, since such arrangements would enable the fleet to be adapted in a more flexible way, in line with the actual diversity and distribution of stocks, and could be supported by structural implementing measures,
Amendment 305 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 32 32. Urges the Commission to carefully explore the possibility of adopting new fisheries management mechanisms, as opposed to the TAC and quota system, for example fishing effort management and the use of transferable fishing rights (duly accompanied by safeguard clauses), since such arrangements would enable the fleet to be adapted in a more flexible way, in line with the actual diversity and distribution of stocks, and could be supported by structural implementing measures, without neglecting the more vulnerable small-scale sector;
Amendment 335 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 34 a (new) 34a. Stresses the importance of the European Fisheries Control and Inspection Agency in the context of the reformed CFP and highlights the need to ensure harmonisation and objectivity in fisheries control and to apply a uniform and fair system of rules and sanctions, thus strengthening confidence among ship-owners and fishermen in the fundamental principle of equal treatment;
Amendment 339 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 Amendment 344 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 a (new) 35a. Notes that IUU fishing is a form of unfair competition that seriously harms all European fishermen who comply with Community, national and third-country legislation and carry out their activity in a responsible way;
Amendment 345 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 b (new) 35b. Recalls that IUU fishing disrupts the fair operation of the market in fish and threatens the balance of ecosystems;
Amendment 371 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 38 a (new) 38a. Considers aquaculture to be an integral part of the CFP that plays a complementary role vis-à-vis the catching subsector, particularly as regards the availability of food supply, employability and repopulation, above all of species that are most over-exploited in the wild;
Amendment 372 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 39 39. Calls for support to be given to investment in new fish farming technologies, including intensive systems allowing water to be recycled
Amendment 378 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 39 a (new) 39a. Considers it essential that, in the event of biological rest periods for the fleet for the purpose of restoring fish stocks, provision should also be made for the canning industry where there are no alternative sources of supply for the species affected by these measures;
Amendment 383 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 40 a (new) 40a. Believes that a far-reaching revision of the COM in fisheries products should be carried out that will make it possible to improve the marketing of fish and other fisheries products and increase their value added;
Amendment 384 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 40 b (new) 40b. Stresses the need to create mechanisms to promote the concentration of supply, in particular the setting-up and revitalisation of producers’ organisations;
Amendment 385 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 40 c (new) 40c. Considers it necessary to create market intervention mechanisms, particularly in fisheries where the management model based on the principle of transferable fishing rights is adopted, in order to prevent the excessive concentration of fishing rights among a small number of operators (safeguard clauses), since, if such a situation came about within a Member State, it could jeopardise the viability of its artisanal fleet, and if several Member States were involved it could jeopardise the sustainability of the sector in some of those States;
Amendment 386 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 40 d (new) 40d. Believes that the policy on support for fishing fleets should take account of merit-based criteria such as: the development of good ‘environmentally friendly’ fishing practices, respect for the culture of compliance, implementation of organisation schemes (producers’ associations);
Amendment 387 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 40 e (new) 40e. Believes that the criteria for the traceability and inspection of fishery products imported onto the Community market should be the same as those applied to products produced or caught by the EU’s fleets and industries;
Amendment 388 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 40 f (new) 40f. Considers it necessary for the EU to ensure the external promotion of Community fishery products, such as canned fish and aquaculture products, in particular by promoting their certification and financing their presentation at international competitions and fairs;
Amendment 391 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 41 41. Maintains that the Community should establish a stronger presence in RFMOs, the FAO, the UN, and other international organisations with a view to promoting the proper management of international fisheries and combating illegal fishing and ensuring greater protection of marine ecosystems so as to safeguard the future sustainability of fisheries activities;
Amendment 405 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 44 44. Considers that partnership agreements should boost job creation in third countries
Amendment 414 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 45 a (new) 45a. Believes that fishing activity should be suitably integrated and structured within a wider context of maritime activities such as: maritime transport, marine tourism, offshore wind farms and aquaculture, and that it should be included in clusters of maritime activities;
Amendment 419 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 47 a (new) 47a. Considers it necessary to establish a transitional period so that this reform of the CFP can be properly harmonised with the current framework of this common policy;
