Question 9130 — aquaculture and professional fishing

Summary

Mrs Liliana Tanguy questions the Minister of Agriculture and Food on the measures envisaged to mitigate the negative effects of the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union on the management of maritime and fishery resources, fishing and the marketing of its products. Given the uncertainty surrounding the implementation and progress of "Brexit", local and regional authorities must be supported in protection of economic activity linked to fishing on their coastal territories. However, as part of the negotiations for the next multiannual financial framework (MFF), the European Commission proposed, at the beginning of May 2018, a reduction in the budget devoted to the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF) for the period 2021-2027 of which France is, for the current programming period (2014-2020), the second beneficiary country. THE European Committee of the Regions encourages, in a report adopted in mid-May 2018, the increase in the budget devoted to maritime and fisheries policies within the next MFF by providing in particular, an additional envelope for the integrated maritime policy. She asks him what position France defends on this point and what additional financial support could be put in place in order to mitigate the effects of “Brexit” on the sector. fishing. She would like to know whether France is in favor of setting up a compensation fund that chief negotiator Michel Barnier could propose to compensate for the repercussions suffered by fishermen and other fishing professionals concerned.
