JPP: GR support for fisheries is a duty to fulfill, with European funds

Funchal Notícias15 September 2026 at 16:07

Juntos Pelo Povo (JPP) considered positive the 870 thousand euro support announced by the Regional Government to alleviate the impact of the extraordinary increase in fuel costs on fishing, aquaculture and fish processing. The party recognizes the need for these support mechanisms for the fisheries sector.

JPP highlighted that this is a duty to fulfill, using European funds to achieve this support. The party values the mechanisms that allow sector operators to face the difficulties caused by the increase in energy costs.

The fisheries sector is particularly exposed to energy costs, which makes this support especially relevant for the sustainability of the activity. The Regional Government responded to this need with a significant financial measure for the sector.

This support comes in a context of extraordinary increase in fuel costs that has severely affected the operators in the fisheries, aquaculture and fish processing sector in the region.

Why this matters

The fishermen and aquaculture operators in the region directly benefit from this 870 thousand euro financial support to face the increase in fuel costs. This measure comes in response to the generalized pressure on energy costs that particularly affects the fisheries sector, allowing professionals to maintain productive activity.
