EU Common Fisheries Policy framework development

Overview

The EU Council of Agriculture and Fisheries has reached an agreement on a new legislative framework for the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) covering the 2028-2034 period. This framework aims to balance sector competitiveness and modernization with environmental sustainability and international obligations.

A key feature of the agreement is the provision for funding the modernization and renewal of fishing fleets, a possibility not available for the first 12 years. The framework includes specific flexibility for small-scale coastal fisheries and allows for support in areas with overfished stocks if restoration measures are in place. While the general orientation of the framework has been established, the specific economic allocation is still subject to future European budget negotiations.
