2011/0280(COD)

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15
(15) The distribution of direct income support among farmers is characterised by the allocation of disproportionate amounts of payments to a rather small number of large beneficiaries. Due to economies of size, larger beneficiaries do not require the same level of unitary support for the objective of income support to be efficiently achieved. Moreover, the potential to adapt makes it easier for larger beneficiaries to operate with lower levels of unitary support. It is therefore fair to introduce a system for large beneficiaries where the support level is gradually reduced and ultimately capped to improve the distribution of payments between farmers. Such system should however take into account salaried labour intensity to avoid disproportionate effects on large farms with high employment numbers. Those maximum levels should not apply to payments granted to agricultural practices beneficial for the climate and the environment since the beneficial objectives they pursue could be diminished as a result. In order to make capping effective, Member States should establish some criteria in order to avoid abusive operations by farmers seeking to evade its effects. The proceeds of the reduction and capping of payments to large beneficiaries should remain in the Member States where they were generated and should be used for financing projects with a significant contribution to innovation under Regulation (EU) No […] of the European Parliament and of the Council of….on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) [RDR].deleted

Amendment 144 #

2009/2106(INI)

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 10
10. Stresses that the management of national quotas and of fishing effort is the responsibility of the Member States and 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 andre not insuperable in the Member States, as shown by the successful application of other management models in other parts of the world, such as transmissible fishery rights;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 31

Amendment 299 #

2009/2106(INI)

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 32
32. Urges the Commission to carefully explore the possibility of adoptingspell out the advantages and drawbacks of 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, without neglecting the more vulnerable small-scale sector while ensuring that the retention of relative stability and mechanisms to protect the small-scale sector are expressly included;

Paragraph 34
34.

Amendment 400 #

2009/2106(INI)

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 43
43. Maintains that new fisheries agreements with third countries should be encouraged in order to afford the Community fleet easier access to new fishing groundsconcluded, and existing ones revised, with the EU calling for greater transparency about the resources it provides, and urging that those resources be used not only to promote investment and create jobs in the fisheries sector in the third countries concerned, but also to create efficient management structures with a view to optimising fisheries management and control;
