WRITTEN QUESTION E-0759/00

by Daniel Varela Suanzes-Carpegna (PPE-DE) to the Commission

Subject: Supply of tuna steak to the Community market

(13 March 2000)

At the Fisheries Council meeting held on 30 March 1999, the Commission undertook to launch a study
with a view to establishing the state of affairs concerning the supply of tuna steak to the Community
market. This study was submitted on 29 November 1999, and presented as a study of demand and supply
of tuna steak (evaluation of the short- and medium-term supply of tuna steak to the Community market).

Can the Commission state why this study states in its recommendations (p. 8 of the general document) and
in paragraph 7 (analysis and conclusions, p. 93) that the central subject of this study is how to supply the
Italian industry so as to allow it to remain competitive while not adversely affecting other European
producers such as Spain, when its central subject was in fact supposed to be the evaluation of the short-
and medium-term supply of tuna steak to the Community market, not to Italy?
