Madrid had proposed a "simple" procedure for granting aid in its management and payment with the aim of avoiding additional administrative burdens and facilitating rapid management of the aid, using the available information, but aid is still not provided. Likewise, the boats that fish in distant fishing grounds will not receive this aid. Other countries like France if they have run and if they grant this help with what the Spanish fleet is in a regime of lack of competitiveness and disadvantage. To this end, a distribution criterion has been established that seeks to correlate the aid with the consumption of the ships' engines, so the aid would be apportioned based on the kilowatts of power of the engines that each registered ship has.

The event will be chaired by EJF's CEO and Founder Steve Trent, with speakers from the U.S. government, Oceana, a leader of a small-scale fishing association in West Africa, and the Financial Times (subject to change).
The session will include a screening of a new film by EJF which shows the first-hand, shocking evidence of an out-of-control fishing fleet that is exploiting the lack of transparency in global fisheries, and will close with a live Q&A.
Not a ton more. Norway will set a cod quota of 19,636 tonnes for the European Union (EU) fleet for the whole of 2022. The matter was debated behind closed doors in the Fisheries Committee of the European Parliament and now the Council must ratify it next week for final approval.
