Fisheries local operational groups (hereinafter in the text FLOG) are allocated the funding of the European Fisheries Fund (hereinafter in the text - EFF) for sustainable development and life quality improvement of areas important for fisheries. Despite the fisheries sector obstructing factors named by the fisheries local operational groups, only 31, 61% of the allocated public funding is channeled to the solution of these problems, and the rest 68,39% - for the general development. According to the author’s opinion, only those FLOG should be supported which culturally, historically and socioeconomically depend on the fisheries sector to the greatest part, in order to use the EFF funding within the next planning period 2014-1020 efficiently and expediently.
