Just published on the back of the small-scale fishers conference in Brussels. It would be helpful and worthwhile knowing what groups and organisations are behind this?
Marai Damanaki had this to say:
Commissioner Damanaki welcomed the main points of the Declaration and emphasized the special socio-economic role artisanal fishermen play in the EU. She encouraged representatives of artisanal fishermen to have their voices heard in the decision-making process, in particular during the ongoing negotiations on the reform of the Common Fisheries Policy.
