Fisheries: Control of Bluefin Tuna Fishing

Bluefin tuna fishing is being monitored by the European Commission through an unprecedented inspection and control campaign in close collaboration with the Community Fisheries Control Agency. This campaign was started following the substantial overfishing by the EU fleet in 2007 and the serious control and enforcement deficiencies detected in all Member States involved in the fishing industry.
