Maria Damanaki, European Commissioner for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Brussels, 7 May 2014:
Aquaculture Event at Seafood Expo Global -
"Ladies and Gentlemen,
I will be brief… I can see many
of you are eyeing up the delicious samples on offer here and this is
precisely the purpose today: showcase our "EU farmed fish"! I am
delighted to be here today to highlight the benefits of eating, fresh,
locally produced fish. In other words, fish farmed here in the EU. When I
say "fish", I mean of course both finfish and shellfish.
