Carl Haglund, a Finnish Liberal MEP, has criticised the European Commission’s management of the fisheries deal between the European Union and Morocco, according to EuropeanVoice.

The European Parliament is to vote on an extension of the EU’s fisheries deal with Morocco. Carl Haglund is drafting the Parliament’s report on the deal and has now hit out at the procedural aspects. “The Commission has handled this extremely badly,” he said to EuropeanVoice.

According to Haglund, the Commission has still not submitted the necessary referral to Parliament. A report analysing the current agreement  has not been made public, although EUobserver claims to have read the report.
