EU-Mauritania fisheries agreement: New protocol

Of all the fisheries partnership agreements currently in force, the EU-Mauritania agreement is by far the most significant in economic terms. A new protocol, setting the details for implementation of the agreement over the coming four years, was signed and entered into provisional application in November 2015. The European Parliament's consent was now required for the conclusion of this protocol.
