EVENT

POLICY

As the Community was created to ensure peace and promote prosperity in Europe, among the policies adopted to achieve these goals was the encouragement of economic development in regions suffering from a lack of jobs and opportunities. The EPP Group firmly believes that fisheries and aquaculture have an important role to play in implementing this policy of economic and social cohesion. The two sectors employ 526,034 people, both men and women, and their combined production value (fisheries, aquaculture, processing and marketing) amounted to 5.3 million tonnes in 2006 (the EU has the second biggest fisheries sector in the world, after China and Peru)....
