EU-Gabon fisheries agreement and protocol – Way forward
Recommendation for a Council Decision authorising the opening of negotiations on behalf of the European Union for the conclusion of a new sustainable fisheries partnership agreement and its implementing protocol between the EU and Gabon
- Initiative summary:
- This initiative will request the Council authorisation for the Commission to negotiate a new protocol with Gabon to implement the Fisheries Partnership Agreement, as the current one will expire in June 2026. If agreed, EU vessels will be able to access local fishing grounds, in return for financial and technical help under conditions set in the protocol. EU fishing in these waters would need to be sustainable, complying with scientific advice on the health of the related tropical tuna stocks.
