Similarly to receiving the smallest share of fisheries funding, small-scale fishers are starved of quotas, landing just 6% of the catch. EU fishing nations must work with coastal communities to create fairer allocation criteria.🎣 #MakeFishingFair theguardian.com/environment/20…

Yesterday, EU Maritime & Fish launched a consultation in view of its evaluation of the #CommonFisheriesPolicy. Oceana stands firm: the CFP is the right tool to rebuild fish stocks, protect #biodiversity and support coastal communities. Watch our video 👇

“The small-scale fleet needs proper & fair quota allocation for its survival & coastal diversification.” – says Carmen Crespo. We agree – Member States must implement Art. 17 of the CFP & work with coastal communities to develop clear social, economic & environmental criteria.

Oceana research: EU long distance fishing fleet is more than double as large as officially known, when foreign-flagged vessels are included. Many of these fly flags from countries with weak oversight. EU states must increase transparency of their fleets: europe.oceana.org/press-releases…

An investigation by Oceana in Europe & Sea Shepherd Italia found that 91% of bottom trawlers, stalls, & markets in 7 Italian locations sold undersized hake, violating EU rules. This threatens one of the Med’s most overfished species, & harm fishers playing by the rules. #SaveTheHake
