WRITTEN QUESTION P-0133/04
by Rosa Miguélez Ramos (PSE) to the Commission
(20 January 2004)
Subject: Fishery control agency in Vigo
On 13 December 2003 the European Council decided to set up a fishery control agency with its headquarters in Vigo.
Is the Commission already working on a proposal for a regulation which will provide the requisite legal basis for this Agency? What powers and resources will the Agency have?
Has the Commission already begun to draw up the economic study for the way the Agency will operate?
When, approximately does the Commission believe the Agency will begin operations in Vigo?
How many Community officials and temporary agents, and of what categories, will be working for it? How many local agents, in addition to the statutory staff, does the Commission calculate it will employ?
Has the Commission begun to look for a building in Vigo to accommodate the Agency? Have the Spanish authorities made the Commission any offer in this connection? If so, what are the details?
Answer given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission
(12 February 2004)
The Commission welcomes the conclusion reached by the Member States at the Heads of State and Government meeting on 13 December 2003 in Brussels regarding the establishment of a European fisheries control agency, whose headquarters will be in Spain.
According to the information at the Commission's disposal, it would seem that the Spanish Government wishes the agency to be located in the city of Vigo in Galicia.
In March 2004 the Commission will present a proposal to the Council and to Parliament for a Regulation setting up the Community fisheries control agency. The proposal will include the agency's budget, with detailed information on its staff numbers and their grades.
A study which the Commission asked to be undertaken in 2003 will evaluate the agency's operating procedures.
Once established, the agency will progressively assume its functions. The agency's location will in any case be the subject of an agreement between it and the Spanish authorities, to be concluded after the agency's management board has been set up and its director appointed.
