The European Commission is to set out its ideas for ending fish discards.Currently, EU boats in the North Sea have to throw away up to half of what they catch to stay within their quotas.Fisheries Commissioner Maria Damanaki proposes instead to regulate fleets through limits on fishing time and greater use of measures such as CCTV.
