@MairiGougeon
despite several FOI's @marinescotland
have not produced any evidence of proportionality re banning creel & dive in Clyde cod saga, probably because there isn't any!
If they assessed relative disturbance the problem would be obvious

#SSF in Maine were forced by sea food supply chains 2 catch high volumes in order to make a decent living, which they knew 2B unsustainable, or not be viable. They decided 2 unite in order to get a better price and thus reduce pressure on the target species - it was a success!

#SSF need a different treatment to large scale fishing, and both need to have their place clearly defined and respected. The #CFP favours larger scale fishing which gets over 90% of the catches, but represent only 20% of the fleet.

@MerGouv a fait appel de la décision du tribunal administratif de Montpellier annulant l’arrêté sur la répartition du #quota français de #thonrouge, selon lequel le système n'est ni transparent ni objectif, ni conforme aux lois françaises.

The Med is the most overfished sea basin in the world. This doesn’t have to be this way. Working together we can and will change this. The EU framework is in place and our international partners are also on board #medfish4ever #Med #sea #overfishing

Ceux qui ont des antériorités importantes sont passé de 1 à 6 tonnes, quant la quota socio-économique est passé de 400 kgs à 1.2 T. Il y a une vraie disproportion. Sur le littoral une 50 des bateaux n'a pas d'anteriorité, et ne vient que sur la quota socio-écon. de 1.2 T.
