Seafood and Health: Covenment's state of confusion

摘要

Over the past few years a growing number of studies have reported significant health benefits associated with seafood and the Government has implemented efforts to encourage greater consumption. At the same time it has imposed ever more stringent demands on a fishing industry already in decline from over-regulation. With a growing domestic consumption of seafood now 70 percent dependent on imports, these too are being subjected to costly new restrictions. The government is telling us to eat more seafood while at the same time making it increasingly scarce and expensive.
