EU Small Scale Fisherman, Jerry Percy, Dimitris Zannes, Luis Rodriguez and Anne-Marie Vergez, hand over the common declaration to a representative of the EU rotating Presidency (Cyprus). The joint declaration, advocating environmentally friendly fishing to protect the oceans and ensure that fishing has a future, was agreed yesterday at the European Artisanal Fishermen's Congress in Brussels by representatives of small-scale fishermen from across Europe who met there to put coastal and low-impact fishing at the heart of the on-going reform of European fisheries policy.
