NGO Briefings for Members of the European Parliament
The focus of the reform of the Common Fisheries Policy is clearly on the Members of the European Parliament (MEPs), and in particular the members of the Fisheries Committee, who in the coming weeks are going to be taking some crucial votes. On this page, you will find a series of briefings and letters by OCEAN2012 and our NGO partners in supporting MEPs in taking these important decisions.
