Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Deplores the fact that the Commission has not included inclusive and effective environmental protection instruments, such as OECMs, in the action plan. Calls, to that end, for the FAO's 2022 handbook for identifying, evaluating and reporting other effective area-based conservation measures in marine fisheries[1] to be used.

3b. Calls for OECMs to be included in the calculation of the statutory protection target of 30% so that this objective can be achieved in a proportionate manner. Asks in this regard for other closures to bottom fishing established by fisheries legislation to be taken into account, such as the 87 areas recently closed to bottom fishing in the Atlantic, or the closures in the Western Mediterranean due to the multiannual management plan.

Amendment 278 #
Motion for a resolution

Amendment 298 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 22 a (new)
22a. Points out that the various sectors that make up the blue economy are interdependent. The loss or scrapping of fishing vessels therefore has a direct impact on European shipyards and other logistics services. Highlights in this regard the need for a decarbonisation and environmental protection strategy that focuses more on innovation than on eliminating fishing activity, and pays equal attention to the three pillars of sustainability – environmental, social and economic – while helping to retain skilled jobs in Europe.

Amendment 301 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 23
23. Considers it essential that any restrictions, whether based on the action plan or not, should be automatically mirrored in the case of products imported from non-EU countries, especially given that the EU imports 70 % of the fish it consumes, to ensure consistency between internal and external policies, and a level playing field between EU and non-EU operators; and that thousands of tonnes of fish come from third countries, such as China, that even benefit from tariff preferences (autonomous tariff quotas), to ensure consistency between internal and external policies, and a level playing field between EU and non-EU operators; calls to that end for a study of the estimated increase in imports to be conducted in the light of the targets set in the plan (30% of the seas).
