Member states were also divided on the storage aid which is part of the Commission proposal for the EMFF: some delegations considered this measure necessary as a safety net for the fish market while others were against providing public money for such market interventions and worried about their distorting effect on competitiveness.
Liikmesriikide arvamused erinesid ka ladustamisabi osas, mis moodustab osa komisjoni EMKFi teemalisest ettepanekust: mõned delegatsioonid pidasid seda meedet vajalikuks kui kalaturu kaitsmise vahendit, samas kui teised olid vastu avalike vahendite eraldamisele sellisteks turusekkumisteks ning väljendasid muret nende moonutava mõju pärast konkurentsivõimele.
