Abstract

A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since the beginning of the consultation process on the reform of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) of the European Union (EU) in April 2009. The issue of individual transferable rights, as raised in the Green Paper on the reform of the CFP, brought out by the European Commission (EC), seems to have been gradually imposed, presented by its advocates as the unavoidable solution to the major ill of Europe’s fisheries: overcapacity simplistically portrayed as a problem of “too many boats chasing too few fish”.
