Proposal for a regulation
Recital 6
Recital 6
(6) Support under the EMFF should be used to address market failures orsafeguard and promote small- scale fisheries, FLAGs, coastal communities including the islands and outermost regions, prioritising addressing sub- optimal investment situationin these regions and address market failures, in a proportionate manner, and should not duplicate or crowd out private financing or distort competition in the internal market. Support should have a clear European added value with due regard to the community objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy.

Recital 10
(10) The EMFF should be based on four priorities: fostering sustainable fisheries and the conservation of marine biological resources; contributing to food security in the Union through competitive and sustainable aquaculture and markets; enabling the growth of a sustainable blue economy and fostering prosperous coastal communities including the islands and outermost regions; strengthening international ocean governance and enabling safe, secure, clean and sustainably managed seas and oceans. Those priorities should be pursued through shared, direct and indirect management.

Recital 18
(18) Fisheries are vital to the livelihood and cultural heritage of many coastal communities, islands and outermost regions in the Union, in particular where small-scale coastal and inshore fishing plays an important role. With the average age in many fishing communities being over 50, generational renewal and diversification of activities remain a challenge.
Amendment 30 #

Recital 20
Recital 20
(20) Support from the EMFF should aim to achieve and maintain sustainable fishing based on the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) and to minimise the negative impacts of unsustainable and harmful fishing activities on the marine ecosystem. That support should include innovation and investments in low-impact, climate resilient and low-carbon fishing practices and techniques.
Amendment 31 #

Recital 21
Recital 21
(21) The landing obligation is one of the main challenges of the CFP. It has implied significant changes in fishing practices for the sector, sometimes with an important financial and socio-economic cost. It should therefore be possible for the EMFF to enable aid for temporary cessation of fishing activities in certain fisheries, particularly those affected by choke species, support innovation and investments that contribute to the implementation of the landing obligation, with a higher aid intensity rate than the one that applies to other operations, like investments in selective fishing gears, in the improvement of port infrastructures and in the marketing of unwanted catches. It should also grant a maximum aid intensity rate of 100% to the design, development, monitoring, evaluation and management of transparent systems for exchanging fishing opportunities between Member States ('quota swaps'), in order to mitigate the 'choke species' effect caused by the landing obligation.
Amendment 33 #

Recital 28
Recital 28
(28) Small-scale coastal fishing is carried out by fishing vessels below 12 metres and not using towed fishing gears. That sector represents nearly 75% of all fishing vessels registered in the Union and nearly half of all employment in the fishery sector. Operators from small-scale coastal fisheries are particularly dependant on healthy fish stocks for their main source of income. The EMFF should therefore give them a preferential treatment through a 100% aid intensity rate, including for temporary cessation of fishing activities due to conditions where it is unsafe to conduct fishing operations at sea or in the event of an unforeseen closure of a fishery, supporting operations related to control and enforcement, with the aim of encouraging sustainable fishing practices. In addition, certain areas of support should be reserved for small-scale fishing in fleet segment where the fishing capacity is balanced with the available fishing opportunities, i.e. support for the acquisition of a second- hand vessel and for engine replacement or modernisation. Furthermore, Member States should include in their programme an action plan for small-scale coastal fishing, which should be monitored on the basis of indicators for which milestones and targets should be set.
Amendment 35 #

Recital 32
Recital 32
(32) It should be possible for the EMFF to support the promotion and the sustainable development of aquaculture, including freshwater aquaculture and closed containment systems, for the farming of aquatic animals and plants for the production of food and other raw material. Complex administrative procedures in some Member States remain in place, such as difficult access to space and burdensome licensing procedures, which make it difficult for the sector to improve the image and competitiveness of farmed products. Support should be consistent with the multiannual national strategic plans for aquaculture developed on the basis of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013. In particular, support for environmental sustainability, productive investments, innovation, acquisition of professional skills, improvement of working conditions, compensatory measures providing critical land and nature management services should be eligible. Public health actions, aquaculture stock insurance schemes and animal health and welfare actions should also be eligible. However, in the case of productive investments support should be provided only through financial instruments and through InvestEU, which offer a higher leverage on markets and are therefore more relevant than grants to address the financing challenges of the sector.
Amendment 36 #

Recital 35
Recital 35
(35) Job creation in coastal regions relies on a locally driven development of a sustainable blue economy that revives the social fabric of those regions, including the islands and outermost regions. Ocean industries and services are likely to outperform the growth of the global economy and make an important contribution to employment and growth by 2030. To be sustainable, blue growth depends on innovation and investment in new maritime businesses and in the bio- economy, including sustainable tourism models, ocean-based renewable energy, innovative high-end shipbuilding and new port service, which can create jobs and at the same time enhance local development. Whilst public investment in the sustainable blue economy should be mainstreamed throughout the Union budget, the EMFF should specifically concentrate on enabling conditions for the development of the sustainable blue economy and on removing bottlenecks to facilitate investment and the development of new markets and technologies or services. Support for the development of the sustainable blue economy should be delivered through shared, direct and indirect management.
Amendment 37 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 36
Recital 36
(36) The development of a sustainable blue economy strongly relies on partnerships between local stakeholders that contribute to the vitality and sustainability of the populations of coastal, island and inland communities and economies. The EMFF should provide tools to foster such partnerships. For that purpose, support for community-led local development (CLLD) should be available under shared management. That approach should boost economic diversification in a local context through the development of coastal and inland fisheries, aquaculture and a sustainable blue economy. CLLD strategies should ensure that local communities better exploit and benefit from the opportunities offered by the sustainable blue economy, capitalising on and strengthening environmental, cultural, social and human resources. Every local partnership should therefore reflect the main focus of its strategy by ensuring a balanced involvement and representation of all relevant stakeholders from the local sustainable blue economy.

Recital 42
(42) With regard to security and defence, improved border protection and maritime security are essential. Under the European Union Maritime Security Strategy adopted by the Council of the European Union on 24 June 2014 and its Action Plan adopted on 16 December 2014, information sharing and the European Border and Coast Guard cooperation between the European Fisheries Control Agency, the European Maritime Safety Agency and the European Border and Coast Guard Agency are key to deliver on those objectives. The EMFF should therefore support maritime surveillance and coastguard cooperation under botharch and rescue operations, the EMFF should therefore support shared and direct management, including by purchasing items for multipurpose maritimthese operations. It should also allow the relevant agencies to implement support in the field of maritime surveillance and security througto improve search iandi rect managementscue operations.

(2) As a global ocean actor andwith the largest maritime area in the world when including the Outermost Regions and Overseas Countries and Territories, the Union has become the world's fifth largest producer of seafood, the Union has a strong responsibility to protect, conserve and sustainably use the oceans and their resources. Preserving seas and oceans is indeed vital for a rapidly growing world population. It is also of socio-economic interest for the Union: a sustainable blue economy boosts investments, jobs and growth, fosters research and innovation and contributes to energy security through ocean energy. Moreover, safe and secure seas and oceans are essential for an efficient border control and for the global fight against maritime crime, thereby addressing citizens' security concerns.

(8) The multiannual financial framework set out in Regulation (EU) xx/xx6 provides that the Union budget must continue to support fisheries and maritime policies. The EMFF budget should amount, in current prices, to EUR 6 140 000 000. EMFF resources should be split between shared, direct and indirect management. EUR 5 311 000 000 should be allocated to support under shared management and EUR 829 000 000 to support under directretain the same level as in the period 2014 - 2020 where and indirect managementcrease is not possible. In order to ensure stability in particular with regard to the achievement of the objectives of the CFP, the definition of national allocations under shared management for the 2021- 2027 programming period should be based on the EMFF 2014-2020 shares. Specific amounts should be reserved for the outermost regions, control and, enforcement and collection and processing of data for fisheries management and scientific purposes, while amounts for permanent cessation, and extraordinary cessation of fishing activities should be capped. For operations located in the outermost regions, the co-financing rate at 85% should not be decreased. _________________ 6 OJ C […], […], p. […].

Recital 19
(19) The EMFF should aim to achieve the environmental, economic, social and employment objectives of the CFP, as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 1380/2013. Such support should ensure that fishing activities are environmentally sustainable in the long-term and managed in a way that is consistent with the objectives of achieving economic, social and employment benefits, and of contributing to the availability of food supplies. In this regard fisheries dependent small offshore islands need to be especially recognised and supported in order to enable them to survive and prosper.

Recital 27
Recital 27
(27) Given the high level of unpredictability of fishing activities, exceptional circumstances may cause significant economic losses to fishers. In order to mitigate those consequences, it should be possible for the EMFF to support a compensation for the unforeseen and extraordinary cessation of fishing activities caused by the implementation of certain conservation measures, i.e. multiannual plans, targets for the conservation and sustainable exploitation of stocks, measures to adapt the fishing capacity of fishing vessels to available fishing opportunities and technical measures, by the implementation of emergency measures, by the interruption, due to reasons of force majeure, of the application of a sustainable fisheries partnership agreement, by prolonged unsafe weather conditions at sea, a natural disaster or by an environmental incident. Support should be granted only if the impact on fishers of such circumstances is significant, i.e. if the commercial activities of the vessel concerned are stopped during at least 90 consecutive days andor if the economic losses resulting from the cessation amount to more than 30% of the average annual turnover of the business concerned during a specified period of time. The specificities of eel fisheries should be taken into account in the conditions for granting such support.

(29) The outermost regions, as outlined in the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions and the European Investment Bank of 24 October 2017 entitled 'A stronger and renewed strategic partnership with the EU's outermost regions'10 , face specific challenges linked to their remoteness, topography and climate as referred to in Article 349 of the Treaty and also have specific assets on which to develop a sustainable blue economy, the EMFF should also be able to take into account the specific constraints recognized in Article 349 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. Therefore, for each outermost region, an action plan for the development of sustainable blue economy sectors, including the sustainable exploitation of fisheries and aquaculture, should be attached to the programme of the concerned Member States and a financial allocation should be reserved to support the implementation of those action plans. It should also be possible for the EMFF to support a compensation of the additional costs the outermost regions face due to their location and insularityfixed disadvantages. That support should be capped as a percentage of this overall financial allocation. In addition, a higher aid intensity rate than the one that applies to other operations should be applied in the outermost regions. _________________ 10 COM(2017) 623

Recital 29 a (new)
(29a) In order to maintain the competitiveness of certain fishery and aquaculture products originating in the outermost regions of the Union compared to similar products from other regions of the Union, the latter introduced in 1992 to offset the additional costs in the fisheries sector. These measures were set for the period2007-2013 by Regulation (EC) No 791/2007 and are continued by Regulation508/2014 in force for the period 2014-2020. It is necessary to maintain the support granted to offset the additional costs of fishing, rearing, processing and disposal of certain fishery and aquaculture products from the outermost regions of the Union from January 1, 20201, so that compensation helps to maintain the economic viability of operators in these regions.

Recital 29 c (new)
(29c) Member States should be allowed to vary the list and quantities of fishery products concerned and the amount of the compensation within the limits of the overall allocation allocated to them. Similarly, they should be allowed to adapt their compensation schemes if the situation changes so that it can be justified.
Amendment 253 #

Recital 29 d (new)
Recital 29 d (new)
(29d) Member States should set the amount of the compensation at a level which adequately offsets the additional costs incurred as a result of the disadvantages of the outermost regions. To avoid overcompensation, the amounts involved should be proportional to the additional costs that the aid is intended to offset. To this end, account should also be taken of other types of public intervention affecting the level of incremental costs.

(33) Food security relies on efficient and well-organised markets, which improve the transparency, stability, quality and diversity of the supply chain, as well as consumer information. For that purpose, it should be possible for the EMFF to support the marketing of fishery and aquaculture products, in line with the objectives of Regulation (EU) No 1379/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council ('CMO Regulation') 15 . In particular, support should be available for the creation of producer organisations including, fishing cooperatives, small-scale producers, the implementation of production and marketing plans, the promotion of new market outlets and the development and dissemination of market intelligence. _________________ 15 Regulation (EU) No 1379/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 on the common organisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products, amending Council Regulations (EC) No 1184/2006 and (EC) No 1224/2009 and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 (OJ L 354, 28.12.2013, p. 1).
