The ‘reform package’ for the common fisheries policy (CFP) has entered an important negotiation phase. On the basis of the European Commission’s proposals, the Council, the European Parliament and the Commission will try to work out an agreement as early as possible in 2013, so that the new policy can come into force no later than 2014. The earlier the new rules apply, the earlier the EU will meet its sustainability objectives.
