Recital 28
(28) Small-scale coastal fishing is carried out by fishing vessels below 12 metres mand not using towed fishing gearaged by family enterprises and SMEs that do not use towed fishing gears, but are accessing local fishing grounds, carrying out daily fishing trips, landing fresh and unprocessed products, and have an important link with their coastal communities and generate vital direct and indirect employment for their communities. That sector represents nearly 75% of all fishing vessels registered in the Union and nearly half of all employment in the fishery sector. Operators from small- scale coastal fisheries are particularly dependant on healthy fish stocks for their main source of income. The EMFF should therefore give them a preferential treatment through a 100% aid intensity rate, including for operations related to control and enforcement, with the aim of encouraging sustainable fishing practices. In addition, certain areas of support should be reserved for small-scale fishing in fleet segment where the fishing capacity is balanced with the available fishing opportunities, i.e. support for the acquisition of a second- hand vessel and for engine replacement or modernisation. Furthermore, Member States should include in their programme an action plan for small-scale coastal fishing, which should be monitored on the basis of indicators for which milestones and targets should be set.
