I lighed med det, der er tilfældet i andre fælles politikområder, andre områder og andre EU-medlemsstater, ønsker Kommissionen heller ikke inden for den fælles fiskeripolitik, og i det konkrete tilfælde vedrørende fiskeriet i Middelhavet, at tage det nødvendige hensyn til de særlige forhold, der gør sig gældende i de forskellige sammenhænge.
This has given rise to the measures that we have seen, which place restrictions on net size, on driftnets, on boat power, on building new boats and on total allowable catches (TAC), all of which forms part of the Multi-Annual Guidance Programme (MAGP). Unfortunately, while our fishermen are hamstrung and their vessels in a state of disrepair, factory ships from Japan, Russia and elsewhere are plundering the fishery resource in French waters.
