1st Meeting of the 8th EP’s Fisheries Committee

The Fisheries Committee on the 7th July was  strange to watch.

The EPP managed to get the Chair position and 2 Vice Chairs.  The Greens and the Social Democrats got the other 2 places.

The  Chair blocked any debate on the candidates for the slot that the EFDD should have got. The Greens were shocked and noted that the right to be heard before a vote was standard practice. The Chair thought otherwise.

I hope the meeting on 22 July (or is it 23 July) is maybe a little more constructive.
