Fish farm majors move to quash importation fears

摘要

IN a joint statement, Pan Fish Scotland Ltd, Marine Harvest (Scotland) Ltd and Fjord Seafood UK Ltd have underlined that they have no intention of importing live salmonids from Norway. And they called on the media to stop publishing claims that thereis "mounting pressure" from the industry to do so. The companies said they had noted substantial media coverage of the recent call from the Association of Salmon Fishery Boards (ASFB), and River & Fishery Trusts Scotland (RAFTS) for greater protection for Scotland's native salmon stocks in relation to imports of live salmonids from Norway.
