Dysfunctions in common fishing regulations

Abstract: One of the main concerns of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) lies in guaranteeing consistency among the different implemented actions. The main concern is establishing a relationship between the levels of compliance with the Multi-annual Guidance Programme (MAGP), the adoption of total allowable catches (TACs), and the levels of compliance with rules by producers. This paper concludes that the percentage of non-compliance with the CFP is very high. Thus, it is very difficult to combine the aims of biological, economic and social sustainability with the references to the present status of resources and the situation of demand and prices of fishing products.
