summary
The Committee on Fisheries adopted an own-initiative report by Marco AFFRONTE (Greens/EFA, IT) on the status of fish stocks and the socio-economic situation of the fishing sector in the Mediterranean. In its communication entitled ‘Consultation on the fishing opportunities for 2017 under the Common Fisheries Policy’, the Commission maintained that overfishing remains prevalent in the Mediterranean and that urgent measures are needed to reverse this situation. In addition to overfishing, the Mediterranean sea is facing numerous challenges, the majority of which can be attributed to a densely populated coastline but also to maritime transport and the overexploitation of resources, including oil and gas harvesting. Members stressed the importance of comprehensively enforcing, in the short term, the targets and measures laid down in the common fisheries policy (CFP), and of a timely drafting and effective implementation of the multiannual management plans in line with an approach centred on regionalisation and a multiplicity of species. They also stressed the need for a response that is collective and based on multi-tier international, European, national and regional cooperation, while underlining the strategic role of the Mediterranean Advisory Council in this context. The report called for the following actions and measures: ensure that more incentives and preferential access to coastal fishing areas are given to small-scale (artisanal and traditional) fleets if they fish selectively and in a manner that has a limited impact; encourage recreational fishing that generates a high economic revenue for the local communities, through activities like tourism; define coastal, small-scale coastal and traditional fishing in line with socio-economic characteristics; apply a precautionary approach to the conservation, management and exploitation of living marine resources which takes into account socio-economic considerations in order to achieve sustainable fisheries, while protecting and preserving the marine environment; improve efforts in the field of marine knowledge, with particular regard to commercially exploited species, and that this knowledge should be used as the basis for planning their sustainable exploitation; combat illegal, unreported or unregulated (IUU) fishing in the Mediterranean Basin and secure the support of non-EU Mediterranean countries; step up monitoring activity both on land, throughout the entire distribution chain (markets and catering trade), and at sea, especially in areas in which fishing is temporarily suspended or prohibited; provide incentives for fleets to use more selective fishing equipment and techniques that have a reduced impact on the marine environment; tackle the depletion of stocks in the Mediterranean through fisheries management and conservation measures for commercial and recreational fisheries, including, mainly, through area and time-based restrictions and daily or weekly fishing limits, as well as quotas, where appropriate; ensure that marine-protected areas cover at least 10 % of the Mediterranean Sea by 2020; protect cooperation in the management of sensitive areas that represent important spawning grounds for the most economically important species; take measures to address the problem of marine litter and plastics in the sea; provide for appropriate planning in space (‘no fishing’ areas on a rotational basis, total or partial closures depending on fishing systems) and time (biological recovery periods), in addition to the promotion of technical measures aimed at maximum gear selectivity; adopt, in the Mediterranean, a minimum permitted size for all commercial and recreational targeted species, depending on sexual maturity and based on the best scientific knowledge available; encourage coordinated action with third countries from the Mediterranean; promote and implement an agreement for time-area closures imposing temporary sequential limits on fishing in the breeding areas of certain species throughout the year; greater involvement of the Mediterranean Advisory Council (MEDAC) and regional fisheries organisations in the decision-making process in line with the regionalisation mentioned in the common fisheries policy. The report called for a series of measures in respect of third countries, such as: (i) promoting measures actions through the GFCM to improve the status of stocks shared with third countries; (ii) promoting compliance and a level playing field in fisheries control with third countries and regional fisheries management organisations (RFMOs); (iii) assisting non-EU Mediterranean countries to achieve the objective of sustainable fishing. Members also stated that it is crucial to improve the working conditions of fishermen, starting with decent remuneration and fair competition, while special attention should be paid to the industry’s high accident rate and high risk of occupational diseases. They suggested that Member States establish income support instruments as well as a stable income compensation fund to cover non-fishing periods. Lastly, the report recommended the mandatory provision of proper consumer information detailing the exact origin of products and the method and date of catch and raising awareness among consumers and educate them to consume fish responsibly.

Amendment 1 #
Draft opinion Paragraph -1 (new) -1. Notes that the Mediterranean coastline is shared by 19 countries with legal and administrative responsibilities in this geographical area, including eight European Union Member States (Spain, France, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Malta, Greece and Cyprus);
Amendment 10 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 1. Points out that small-scale fishing in the Mediterranean accounts for 80% of the fleet and 60% of jobs: points to the importance of small-scale non-industrial fishing for the sustainability of stocks, environmental conservation, and the socio- economic development of fishing communities; draws attention to the fact that the inherent structural weaknesses of the small-scale non-industrial fishing sector make it vulnerable to economic shock factors (such as rapid fuel price increases and difficulties in gaining access to credit) and sudden fluctuations in resource availability, which need to be addressed by means of targeted support measures;
Amendment 11 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 1. Points out that small-scale fishing in the Mediterranean accounts for 80% of the fleet and 60% of jobs; points to the importance of small-scale non-industrial fishing for the sustainability of stocks, environmental conservation, and the socio- economic development of fishing communities; stresses that small-scale fishing plays a significant role in local employment and is an essential economic and social factor in the Mediterranean; underlines that the identity, culture and values of many local communities concerned are largely based upon activities in the fishing sector;
Amendment 12 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1a. Notes that the socio-economic situation in the sector has deteriorated, in particular as a result of the decline in fish yields, the drop in the value of fish at first sale (which has not been reflected in the retail sales price, owing to speculation on the part of intermediaries and the monopoly on distribution), the restrictions imposed on fishing for certain species and the rise in the cost of fuel, and that these difficulties have contributed to the increase in fishing effort, and notes that this, alongside restrictions on access and fishing licences and the limited amount of support available for small-scale fishing and renewal of the fleet, fishing gear and other equipment, has adversely affected the living and working conditions of fishermen and small shipowners;
Amendment 13 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1a. Stresses that small-scale non- industrial fishing, some types of coastal fishing, shell-fishing and other traditional forms of aquaculture face problems different from those in the large-scale fishing sector; observes that many of the decisions taken by the EU in this sector are based on rules that are out of step with reality, economically flawed and difficult to implement;
Amendment 14 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1a. Recalls that the socio-economic situation of the fishing sector in the Mediterranean depends, first and foremost, on a sustainable level of fish stocks;
Amendment 15 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 b (new) 1b. Believes that a balance must be struck between fair competition, consumer requirements, sustainability of the fishing sector and the maintenance of jobs; stresses the need to have a comprehensive approach and a strong political will by all Mediterranean countries to face the challenges and improve the situation of the Mediterranean sea;
Amendment 16 #

Amendment 18 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 2. Maintains that where fisheries are concerned, policy-making should be such as to enable fishermen and their organisations, trade unions, and communities to be involved in – and made an integral part of – decision-taking processes; points out that the economic and social crisis is hitting the fisheries sector extremely hard and that, within that sector, small-scale non-industrial fishing is in particular difficulties owing to a lack of capital and the unavailability of credit;
Amendment 19 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 2. Maintains that where fisheries are concerned, policy-making should be such as to enable fishermen and their organisations, trade unions, and communities to be involved in – and made an integral part of – decision-taking processes; moreover, it is necessary to protect the interests of EU fishermen, namely in those Member States which have been reduced to poverty by the economic crisis and the austerity policies;
Amendment 2 #
Draft opinion Paragraph -1 a (new) -1a. Notes that fishing in the Mediterranean can essentially be split into three categories/segments of the fleet: small-scale coastal and artisanal fishing, seiners and trawlers (pelagic and demersal), in other words, the Mediterranean fishing sector is highly diverse and, while it includes some industrial fisheries, it mainly comprises genuinely artisanal fisheries, sometimes geared simply to family subsistence;
Amendment 20 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Points out that these complex issues require cooperation and concerted action by all stakeholders, including third countries on the eastern and southern shores of the Mediterranean basin; stresses that only by creating fair, balanced and egalitarian conditions for all the countries involved and for all fishing operators in the Mediterranean will it be possible to ensure healthy fishery resources and sustainable and profitable fisheries, and hence to guarantee current levels of employment and ideally create more jobs in the fishing sector;
Amendment 21 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Recalls that the mandatory high European standards are harmful to the sustainability of employment in the small- scale fisheries sector in view of unfair competition from third countries;
Amendment 22 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 b (new) 2b. Insists on the need to reach partnership agreements with Mediterranean third countries in order to put a stop to unfair competition and to better regulate the management of stocks;
Amendment 23 #

Draft opinion Paragraph 3 – indent 1 – promoting fleet renewal and modernisation, while seeking to reduce the fishing effort
Amendment 3 #
Draft opinion Paragraph -1 b (new) -1b. Points out that fishing activity in the Mediterranean is quite varied and complex, chiefly involving multi-species fisheries (with a range of target and by- catch species), using many types of fishing gear with different technical characteristics and degrees of selectivity, and this makes it difficult to apply classical and traditional methods of fisheries assessment and management;
