To be fair that was just a rubber-stamping process to get the law back to the european parliament to be debated and discussed, where it was (rightfully) rejected. It had already been agreed (correctly, at a competitiveness meeting of the council) that it would go back to the parliament. They sent it through the fisheries Commission because the board that had the responsibility for it wasn't due to meet for another 6 months. I guess some people care deeply about the details of which commission sends the proposed legislation to the parliament to be debated & amended / rejected, but in reality I think it doesn't really matter. In either case the correct thing for the commission to do was send the legislation to the parliament.
