Recital 3 a (new)
(3a) Multi-annual recovery plans drawn up under Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, such as the recovery plan for bluefin tuna, must apply the precautionary approach to fisheries management as set out therein and be in accordance with the UN Fish Stocks Agreement, resulting in the need for more caution to be exercised on the part of the Union when information is uncertain, unreliable or inadequate and making it imperative that the absence of adequate scientific information is not used as a reason for postponing or failing to take management measures to conserve bluefin tuna and their environment.
