Amendment 3 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4 4. Expresses its concern over the proposed reduction in the resources available under chapter 11 04 'Governance of the Common Fisheries Policy'; given the importance of Regional Advisory Councils (RACs), it considers that an appropriate funding is indispensable for better governance of the CFP; considers, in addition, that the Commission should introduce greater flexibility and transparency into the rules governing the financial activities of the RACs, which are currently subject to an excess of interpretative criteria on the Commission's part, with a view to ensuring that existing rigidities no longer prevent the RACs from spending the entirety of the limited budget allocated to them;

2009/2106(INI) Green Paper on reform of the common fisheries policy
2009/12/17
PECH
48 amendments...
Amendment 27 #
Motion for a resolution Recital F a (new) Fa. whereas fisheries is one of the predominant activities that use the sea and its resources and should thus be considered a key part of IMP management,
Amendment 35 #
Motion for a resolution Recital I a (new) Ia. whereas this new reform of the CFP should already constitute a better alignment of fisheries policy with the single market rules,
Amendment 43 #
Motion for a resolution Recital J a (new) Ja. whereas the conservation and management policy has been the greatest failure of the CFP and has not been amended or updated since its creation, and whereas it is therefore necessary to focus on designing a new fisheries conservation and management model,
Amendment 44 #
Motion for a resolution Recital J b (new) Jb. whereas the European Union, by virtue of commitments undertaken at international fora, has defined the objectives of its fisheries policy to be management by means of Maximum Sustainable Yield (MSY) and the ecosystem approach,
Amendment 64 #
Motion for a resolution Recital M a (new) Ma. whereas small-scale fleets and those of a larger-scale industrial nature have very different characteristics and problems that cannot be fitted into a uniform model and thus have to be treated differently,
Amendment 77 #
Motion for a resolution Recital P a (new) Pa. whereas the CFP's external policy is essential to guarantee supplies to industry and consumers since over one-third of Community production comes from international fishing grounds and waters belonging to the EEZs of third countries,
Amendment 82 #
Motion for a resolution Recital Q a (new) Qa. whereas many of the jobs in the fisheries sector are currently being filled by workers from third countries, as this work is becoming less and less attractive for young people in the Community,
Amendment 89 #
Motion for a resolution Recital R a (new) Ra. whereas the sharp decline in the prices for most fish species in recent years has had a very negative impact on producers' incomes whilst these producers have, at the same time, seen increases in their production costs that they cannot pass on in the initial sales price,
Amendment 90 #
Motion for a resolution Recital R b (new) Rb. whereas the shift in the market structures for fisheries products and the move away from an acceptable balance between producers and buyers to a situation that may increasingly be seen as an oligopoly by the latter, as a result of the concentration of distribution and purchasing chains;
Amendment 91 #
Motion for a resolution Recital R c (new) Rc. whereas many of the exports by third countries are creating a serious problem for the competitiveness of the Community sector, as they do not comply with the standards and control systems that apply to Community producers and consumers and the increase in production costs that these entail,
Amendment 92 #
Motion for a resolution Recital R d (new) Rd. whereas this situation of falling prices also does not benefit the consumer in the longer term,
Amendment 104 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Reiterates that the main objective of the CFP should be to guarantee the future of both fisheries resources and of fishermen, through the recovery of fish populations and restoring the economic viability of the sector;
Amendment 131 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 6 6. Emphasises that, with the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, Parliament
Amendment 137 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 8 Amendment 181 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 17 a (new) 17a. Supports differentiated treatment for the deep-sea fisheries sectors and those whose structure and business capabilities are more on a par with other economic activities, and for smaller-scale fisheries with closer links to coastal areas and specific markets, a lower unit production volume and different cost and employment structures;
Amendment 182 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 18 18.
Amendment 199 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 19 19. Points to the need for greater investment in research and scientific knowledge in the fisheries field, and for the fisheries sector to be dovetailed more effectively into the subject areas covered by the framework programmes to promote research; emphasises that the new ecosystem approach will involve multidisciplinary research;
Amendment 210 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 20 20.
Amendment 229 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 23 23. Urges the Commission to draw up
Amendment 238 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 24 a (new) 24a. Emphasises that professional qualifications are a key factor both in improving productivity and raising wages; points out that skilled jobs are a feature of technologically advanced businesses and imply better remuneration, better knowledge of standards (and thus a greater likelihood of complying with them) and a better understanding of, and respect for, the interaction between fishing and ecosystems;
Amendment 297 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 32 32.
Amendment 307 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 32 a (new) 32a. Considers that any change in the management model should include a transitional application period exclusively within each Member State, in order to avoid any sudden changes and to assess the results before extending their application to Community level;
Amendment 308 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 32 b (new) 32b. Also considers that any new management model should build on the existing arrangements based on relative stability, but sees it as inevitable that the future CFP will have to recognise the current situation regarding the use of quotas, giving the system sufficient flexibility to stop hampering the economic effectiveness and profitability of investments,
Amendment 319 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 33 33. Maintains that Regional Advisory Councils (RACs)
Amendment 327 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 34 34.
Amendment 336 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 34 a (new) 34a. Emphasises that for a control system to function properly, there have to be guarantees that it is applied uniformly and without discrimination;
Amendment 337 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 34 b (new) 34b. Takes the view that the CFP control policy should take the following into account: - more direct control by the European Commission, making maximum use of the possibilities offered by the creation of the Fisheries Control Agency, - legislative simplification through the adoption of standards that are best adapted to achieving the objectives, - application of the principle that the party that breaches legislation must repair the damage done to other operators, and - a bottom-up decision-making process, which will facilitate the implementation of the control system;
Amendment 338 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 34 c (new) 34c. Believes that the current catch control system should be replaced by controls on the fishing effort because this is much simpler and will help eliminate discards;
Amendment 348 #
Motion for a resolution Title after Paragraph 35 (new) Management of Community fishing fleets
Amendment 349 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 a (new) 35a. Stresses that the scope of the reform of the CFP should seek solutions that ensure a stable and permanent balance between fishery resources and fleet capacity;
Amendment 350 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 b (new) 35b. Reiterates the importance of adjusting the capacity of the fishing fleet to the resources available, but stresses that the Commission and Member States should quantify the actual excess capacity, identifying which fleets are too large in relation to their current fishing opportunities;
Amendment 351 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 c (new) 35c. Is in favour of setting up a Scrapping Fund as an effective and short-term solution to the problems of overcapacity, with rules to avoid its use being blocked by the Member States;
Amendment 352 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 35 d (new) 35d. Considers that the fishing fleet should be capable in the longer term of financing itself and remaining competitive in a liberalised fisheries products market, but stresses that this can only happen under a CFP whose fisheries management model facilitates the profitability of companies;
Amendment 389 #
Motion for a resolution Title before Paragraph 41 External relations
Amendment 393 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 41 a (new) 41a. Considers that the CFP's external actions should be guided by the objectives of defending Community fisheries interests in line with EU external policy;
Amendment 398 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 43 43.
Amendment 403 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 43 a (new) 43a. Calls, in addition, for the financial compensation in the fisheries partnership agreements to make a clear distinction between the part relating to the commercial component and that relating to fisheries development cooperation with third countries, in the interests of greater budgetary transparency;
Amendment 408 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 44 a (new) 44a. Is convinced that the fisheries partnership agreements should be negotiated on a sound scientific basis and understands that other necessary progress should require the inclusion of all technical measures in the negotiating process and substantial improvements in the mechanisms for implementing the provisions contained in the agreement;
Amendment 409 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 44 b (new) 44b. Calls for the sector affected to be consulted during the negotiating process and for the Long Distance RAC to participate as an observer in the joint committees provided for in the agreements;
Amendment 410 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 44 c (new) 44c. Considers that the growing complexity of the situation, the need for a more effective follow-up to the agreements and the increasing number of tasks involved in proper participation in the RFOs call for an increase in DG MARE's human and material resources, and that the possible decentralisation of executive management to the Member States should be investigated;
Amendment 413 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 45 a (new) 45a. Considers it a good decision for the European Commission to have made the IMP one of its priorities, and emphasises that the new ecosystem approach establishes a direct priority link between the CFP and this IMP;
Amendment 415 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 45 b (new) 45b. States that fishing is one of the economic activities that has the greatest impact on ecosystems in that it obtains significant resources from these, and that it is the one most affected by the actions of other activities in these ecosystems, such as tourism, maritime transport, coastal urban development, etc.;
Amendment 418 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 47 47. Maintains that proper European maritime spatial planning needs to be systematically implemented,
Amendment 421 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 47 a (new) 47a. Echoes the complaints voiced by the sector because the reform of the COM in fisheries and aquaculture products has been linked to the process of reforming the CFP, as opposed to what happened with the fisheries control policy, which will probably mean having to wait until 2013 before Community producers have a new framework to help them enhance the profitability of their activity; hopes that the Commission Communication on the future of the current COM will be presented without further delay;
Amendment 422 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 47 b (new) 47b. Calls, in addition, for the compilation of a study providing a detailed analysis of the general situation concerning the concentration of demand in the fisheries products market, in order to check for the existence of market strategies that might breach competition rules and push down the prices for most species;
Amendment 423 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 47 c (new) 47c. Asks, at the same time, that in its future recovery and management plans, the Commission analyze the possible impact and repercussions of reducing catches on the European market and the subsequent import of substitutes from third countries to make up for market shortages;

2009/2107(INI) A new impetus for the Strategy for the Sustainable Development of European Aquaculture
2010/04/14
PECH
27 amendments...
Amendment 7 #
Motion for a resolution Recital C C. whereas the aquaculture sector directly interacts with policy areas which are of prime importance to our society, such as the
Amendment 10 #
Motion for a resolution Recital D D. whereas the 2002 Commission communication has proved clearly restrictive and inadequate in encouraging the sector and Member States to give a significant boost to the development of the EU aquaculture sector, while the past decade has seen a substantial growth of the sector worldwide,
Amendment 11 #
Motion for a resolution Recital D a (new) Da. whereas the EU is a net importer of fishery and aquaculture products, and the demand for these products is increasing both globally, due to the growing world population, and at Community level due to the past and future accession to the EU of countries in which this trend in demand is even more accentuated, and also because consumption patterns are changing towards foods based on healthier products,
Amendment 13 #
Motion for a resolution Recital E E. whereas the Community sustainable aquaculture sector can make a major contribution to ensuring high-quality food supplies as regards fish products and thus to reducing the pressure on wild species, as well as playing an important role as regards food security, economic activities and employment, especially in rural and coastal regions,
Amendment 14 #
Motion for a resolution Recital F F. whereas the EU should therefore give the sustainable aquaculture sector and its development at EU level greater strategic importance, providing it with the necessary financial aid, bearing in mind that the high technology required by aquaculture activities often entails substantial investment by companies, whatever their size,
Amendment 16 #
Motion for a resolution Recital G G. whereas the considerable research and technological innovation required to ensure the competitiveness and sustainability of aquaculture and enable operators to be successful in the sector is beyond the possibilities of many companies in the sector,
Amendment 17 #
Motion for a resolution Recital H H. whereas, in order to be effective, a sustainable aquaculture policy will need to be structured in such a way as to benefit
Amendment 23 #
Motion for a resolution Recital K K. whereas the
Amendment 26 #
Motion for a resolution Recital L L. whereas aquaculture operators in many EU countries
Amendment 31 #
Motion for a resolution Recital M M. whereas, at the same time, many EU countries lack
Amendment 39 #
Motion for a resolution Recital O O. whereas EU products currently face fierce competition from imports from non- EU countries (above all, Turkey, Chile, Vietnam and China), where companies can operate with much lower overheads, as they are not subject to the same legal constraints, the same stringent environmental and plant health legislation, and low wages (social dumping), thereby putting the EU aquaculture sector under further pressure,
Amendment 42 #
Motion for a resolution Recital O a (new) Oa. whereas aquaculture activities have a lower environmental impact than other primary sectors (agriculture and stockbreeding), and aquaculture products are thus more sustainable than agricultural and stockbreeding products; whereas a section of European civil society is also unaware of this fact, which may give rise to unfounded prejudices about these products,
Amendment 44 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 2 2. Points out that, with the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon, the European Parliament has ceased to be a consultative body in the fisheries sector and has become a co-
Amendment 49 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 6 6. Considers that targeted support for technological and scientific research is an essential prerequisite for the development of a sustainable, modern, efficient, economically viable and environment- friendly aquaculture sector; also points out that research networks, multidisciplinary research groups, technology transfer and coordination between the sector and scientists through technology platforms are essential to ensure a good return on investment in R&D;
Amendment 58 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 10 10. Considers it urgent and essential to lay down rigorous, transparent quality and traceability criteria for EU aquaculture products, to improve fish feedstuffs and
Amendment 61 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 11 a (new) 11a. Calls on the Commission to introduce a European eco-labelling programme for fishery and aquaculture products that follows the Community guidelines on eco-labelling; emphasises that eco-labelling not only gives European aquaculture products a competitive advantage, but also brings transparency to a market in which the proliferation of private certifications can confuse consumers;

2009/2152(INI) Report on the Commission White Paper: 'Adapting to climate change: towards a European framework for action'
2010/04/02
PECH
7 amendments...
Amendment 8 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 3 3. Points out that, inter alia, rapid depletion of European fish stocks as a result of fishing practices is eroding the ecological and economic basis of fisheries and is making marine ecosystems more vulnerable to climate change and thus less capable of adapting;
Amendment 9 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 4a (new) Amendment 11 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5 5. Notes that climate change will have potentially severe economic implications for European industrial and small-scale fisheries, which may requir
Amendment 15 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5a (new) 5a. Highlights the particular vulnerability of fishing ports and aquaculture installations to rising sea levels, since these infrastructures are located along the edge of the coastline; also highlights their economic and social significance; urges the Commission, therefore, to take specific account of them in adaptation and risk analysis measures and to pay careful attention to the economic costs to these infrastructures of failure to adapt to climate change;
Amendment 21 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 7 7. Deplores the fact that mature and well- functioning Integrated Coastal Zone Management involving all relevant levels of government is still rarely put into practice1 and strongly urges the Commission to ensure that the Integrated Coastal Zone Management recommendations2 are updated,
Amendment 32 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 10 10. Urges the Commission to ensure that adequate financing is provided for ecosystem protection
Amendment 34 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 11a (new) 11a. Stresses that the fishing industry's capacity to adapt to variations in productivity and recruitment in the various fisheries depends on the following factors: - fishing capacity being commensurate with the productive capacity of the resource during its lower productivity phases, - the availability of alternative fishery resources, - investment in flexible technologies such as 'multipurpose' boats and flexible processing chains, - the availability of alternative livelihoods during lean periods1;

2009/2238(INI) Arrangements for importing fishery and aquaculture products into the EU with a view to the future reform of the CFP
2010/05/26
PECH
4 amendments...
Amendment 45 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 15 a (new) 15a. Urges the Commission to increase the quantity and quality of impact assessments on all tariff and trade concessions relating to the industry and the EU and ACP markets, in the context of the studies conducted by DG Trade, which currently focus almost entirely on the impact of such measures on beneficiary countries; also stresses that those assessments must provide duly quantified results and take particular account of vulnerable fish species;
Amendment 51 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 17 a (new) 17a. Points out, in this respect, that in many cases it is the Community’s own rules on conservation and management that encourage the entry of new fishery and aquaculture products from third countries, which then replace Community fishery products and take over their traditional market niches; calls on the Commission, therefore, when drawing up plans for the recovery and management of species, to take close account, in its calculations and timescales for the recovery of a species, of the risk that a sudden and marked drop in the supply of products of Community origin may jeopardise their future access to markets once a species has recovered;
Amendment 54 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 20 a (new) 20a. The European Union must also enforce those undertakings in order to ensure that all products exported to the European Union, without exception, are from countries that have ratified the main international agreements in the field of maritime law, and in particular the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and the Convention on Straddling and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks and, in cases where the exports are from waters managed by an RFMO, that they are contracting parties to the relevant RFMO agreement;
Amendment 59 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 25 25. Emphasises the importance of rigorously applying all aspects of EU law in relation to health standards and inspections (including food safety, traceability and prevention) to fishery and aquaculture imports; urges the Commission, in this respect, to enhance its programme of third country inspections by fine-tuning Food and Veterinary Office missions, primarily by increasing the number of establishments inspected on each mission, in order to obtain results that better reflect the real situation in third countries;

Draft opinion Paragraph 1 1.
Amendment 7 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1a (new) 1a. Rejects forcefully, therefore, the cuts proposed by the Council, since the existing low level of funding for the CFP is such as to render unjustified, even in a context of economic difficulties, cuts such as those proposed, be it for administrative expenditure or for any other type of spending;
Amendment 11 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 2. Welcomes the Commission's proposed increase in commitment and payment appropriations for the European Fisheries Fund (EFF);
Amendment 19 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5 5. Points out that, as in the case of the CFP, the funds proposed for the development of an Integrated Maritime Policy (IMP) are not sufficient to cover the most important aspects of the launch of this new policy; calls for specific budget headings to be created for the European Union's new maritime policy, which must be endowed with the appropriations needed for successful development of the IMP

Amendment 7 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 2. Insists, in particular, that the constraints and specificities of the fisheries and aquaculture sectors be taken into account in the IMP as regards use of the maritime domain,
Amendment 9 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Particularly stresses the vital need to carry out multidisciplinary research programmes designed to properly integrate all the activities occurring in the marine environment, based on an ecosystem approach and taking account of the potential impact of such activities on fisheries and aquaculture, as these sectors are extremely dependent on natural resources;
Amendment 20 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 5 5. Calls, also, for
Amendment 33 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 7 7. Stresses that the wish to see the IMP contribute to the safeguarding of a viable European fisheries sector which respects the environment but is also a source of wealth for its actors
Amendment 47 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 9 9. Stresses that funding to implement the IMP must be guaranteed in the Community budget by means of a proportional contribution from all the sectors affected by this policy, taking account of the differences that the EU budget applies to each policy, the balance between the benefits and risks – both environmental and socio-economic – of such activities to society, and the degree of interdependence between coastal areas and the different activities, bearing in mind that the fisheries sector’s dependence on the marine area is unavoidable.

2010/2210(INI) Combating illegal fishing at the global level - the role of the EU
2011/06/21
PECH
3 amendments...
Amendment 18 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 1 1. Believes that IUU fishing is one of the most serious threats facing the biodiversity of the world's oceans, and its consequences have incalculable social and economic repercussions not only on fishing businesses and regions but on society as a whole;
Amendment 100 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 15 a (new) 15a. Takes the view that the European Union already has instruments with which to discourage illegal fishing and is convinced that, since it is one of the largest markets for fish in the world, the dissuasive effect would have undoubted practical consequences if it uses these instruments properly; calls, therefore, for European Union export certificates not to be granted to or to be withdrawn from those states or contracting parties which do not cooperate with RFMOs in establishing instruments such as catch documentation systems or port state measures;
Amendment 101 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 15 b (new) 15b. Stresses that one of the best weapons in the fight against IUU fishing is the trade weapon; once again deplores, therefore, the lack of coordination between DG MARE and DG TRADE, since whilst the former is setting itself more and more objectives in order to combat IUU fishing, the latter's exclusive aim appears to be to make Community markets more and more open to imports, whatever their origin and whatever control guarantees are in place, granting tariff preferences and rules of origin derogations that are serving only to hand European markets over to fleets and countries that have been identified as at least tolerating IUU fishing;

3 amendments...
Amendment 4 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1a. Considers it vital that one of the Green Paper's objectives should be achieved, i.e. the future EU budget must focus on instruments with 'added value' and become 'more results-driven'; takes the view that, even though excellence is a fundamental criterion in science, there are some sectors such as fisheries in which applied research is unavoidable in order to define and apply management measures; points out that the objectives of the new CFP, based on the ecosystem approach and maximum sustainable yield, require multidisciplinary and on-the-spot knowledge and assessments which make it possible to draw speedy conclusions on which innumerable business decisions, jobs and marine ecosystem measures depend;
Amendment 6 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 b (new) 1b. Hopes, in this context, that the Green Paper will mark a change in current scientific policy in relation to fisheries, since the pure pursuit of excellence in this sector has resulted in the abandonment of key chapters such as knowledge of species and their behaviour from the perspective of their utilisation by fleets and their relationship with management measures, and has led many scientists to move away from applied fisheries research and young researchers to reject this field, causing serious shortages of specialised staff at a time when they were most needed, given the state of stocks;
Amendment 13 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Welcomes the fact that the Green Paper stresses the need for research that will improve innovation capacity and competitiveness, which, in coordination with the measures envisaged in the EFF, may open up new possibilities for fishing businesses to invest in the development of new, more sustainable fishing techniques, such as new gear, vessels which are less polluting, safer and more comfortable, and measures designed to upgrade the use and value of fish products;
