The regulation prohibiting purse seiners from fishing for bluefin tuna from mid-June 2008 is partially invalid. The regulation breaches the principle of non-discrimination in so far as the prohibition took effect from 23 June 2008 for Spanish purse seiners whereas it took effect from 16 June 2008 for Maltese, Greek, French, Italian and Cypriot purse seiners. |
