carry-over payments

But with regard to carry-over payments, I would remind Mr Varela that this was rejected by the Member States back in 1995.

It is also the case that in 1995 the Member States themselves decided not to extend the procedure for awarding carry-over payments in favour of the sardine industry, precisely because the operators and the Member States no longer wished to favour this sector over others, in view of everything that had been done already.
