Report on Member States’ efforts during 2013 to achieve a sustainable balance between fishing capacity and fishing opportunities

Summary:

Evidence from Member States shows continued progress in the adjustment of fishing capacity of the Member States' fleets in relation to the available fish resources. Member States measures which have been applied in the past, together with the Union's efforts to improve the state of the resources, have contributed, over time, to achieving the balance in many fleet segments between fishing capacity and the fishing opportunities.
