Implementation into Union law of measures adopted by regional fisheries management organisations

The Commission proposed a regulation to update several EU laws that apply conservation, management and control measures in the convention areas of six regional fisheries management organisations, and to bring rules agreed multilaterally between 2018 and 2024 into EU law. Parliament adopted its position at first reading on this proposal, which sets out its stance for the negotiations with the Council before the law can be final. The committee report includes amendments that add recommendations adopted until 2024 that were missing from the Commission proposal, and the rapporteur asks the Commission to engage with Parliament before future transposition proposals.
