WRITTEN QUESTION E-2204/01

by Rosa Miguélez Ramos (PSE) to the Commission

(23 July 2001)

Subject: International agreements on tuna

In its conclusions of 30 October 1997 the Council of Ministers of Fisheries noted that the Commission
would have to consider how far it was possible to develop the network of agreements on tuna.

Nearly four years after the Council meeting was held, has any action been taken to this end?

Answer given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission

(6 September 2001)

The Commission continues to work towards developing networks of tuna fisheries agreements in the
Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Since October 1997 the Commission has concluded a new agreement on tuna
with Gabon and preliminary talks are under way with Ghana and Mozambique.

In June 2001 the Commission also received a new negotiating brief from the Council to conclude tuna
fisheries agreements with the ACP (African, Caribbean and Pacific) States of the western central Pacific.
