Paragraph 5
5. Stresses the importance of reducing discards as a means of avoiding food waste, but stresses that the landing obligation is not the right instrument to increase selectivity and therefore to reduce bycatch; reiterates, in this regard, the call from its resolution of 18 May 20211 for commercial and/or charitable opportunities to be identified to make the best possible use of those unavoidable or unwanted catches below the minimum conservation reference size; _________________ 1 European Parliament resolution of 18 May 2021 on securing the objectives of the landing obligation under Article 15 of the Common Fisheries Policy, OJ C 15, 12.1.2022, p. 9.
