Imported fish sale ban under review
Excerpt
The Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources said on Monday that it is reviewing the rule that says frozen salmon and pompano from other countries can't be sold in the wet markets. BFAR officer-in-charge Demosthenes Escoto made this disclosure during the Senate committee hearing on agriculture, food, and agrarian reform after Senator Raffy Tulfo questioned the BFAR order in a privilege speech. Tulfo also mentioned that the BFAR's Fisheries Administrative Order 195 might affect the livelihood of small-time vendors and the availability of some fish products.
