WRITTEN QUESTION E-0087/01

by Camilo Nogueira RomÆn (Verts/ALE) to the Commission

(29 January 2001)

Subject: Fisheries agreements between Morocco and Japan, Russia, Korea and Norway

At a time when the Community fleet (notably vessels from Galicia, Andalusia and the Canaries)
is
immobilised in port, unable to fish in the Canaries/Saharan waters thanks to the non-renewal of the
fisheries agreement with the Kingdom of Morocco, Morocco itself appears to have entered into new
agreements with Japan, Russia, Korea and Norway. How does the Commission interpret this development,
given the arguments on overfishing of its resources advanced by Morocco to justify not signing a new
fisheries agreement with the EU within the next few years?

Answer given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission

(28 February 2001)

To the Commission(cid:146)s knowledge, Morocco has only concluded two other State-to-State fisheries agree-
ments.

Firstly, with Russia, there was an agreement involving access for Russian vessels to fish pelagic resources
such as mackerel, horse mackerel, and sardinella. This agreement expired on 30 November 1999 and has
not been renewed.

Secondly, with Japan, there is an agreement involving 15 longline vessels to fish blue-fin tuna for those
three months of the year when the tuna migrates through Moroccan waters. This agreement expires in
September 2001.

Therefore, it is clear that these two Agreements do not interfere with the Community(cid:146)s past and future
interests and that the one with Japan is the only agreement currently in force.

Moreover, it should be underlined that the fleets involved do not target the same sensitive species with
which Morocco claims to have conservation problems.

(29 January 2001)

Subject: Reverse discrimination against German participants in frequent flyer programmes

Is the Commission aware that frequent flyer programmes such as the Star Alliance programme

confer a particular status?

Is the Commission also aware that a distinction is made between participants resident in Germany

Does the Commission take the view that this constitutes reverse discrimination against the German

participants in contrast to citizens of the other Member States of the European Union?

4. What steps, if any, is the Commission planning to take?
