THE DIRECTOR OF AGRICULTURE AND FISHERIES, DR LAWRENCE LEE, TODAY (WEDNESDAY) APPEALED ΤΟ THE FISHERMEN FOR THEIR CONTINUOUS CO-OPERATION IN MARKETING THEIR CATCHES THROUGH THE FISH MARKETING ORGANISATION (FMO) MARKETS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MARINE FISH (MARKETING) ORDINANCE.

SPEAKING AT THE FMO'S ANNUAL PRIZE-GIVING CEREMONY AT THE ABERDEEN WHOLESALE FISH MARKET, DR LEE SAID TO ENSURE THAT THE TRADING OF FISH WAS CONDUCTED IN AN EQUITABLE MANNER AND AT FAIR PRICES, THE FMO HAD OVER THE PAST YEARS TAKEN The NECESSARY MEASURES TO MAINTAIN GOOD MARKET ORDER IN THE VARIOUS WHOLESALE MARKETS.

"THE ORGANISATION AND THE POLICE CONTINUED TO JOIN FORCES IN

ELIMINATING ILLEGAL MARKETING ACTIVITIES.

"DURING THE PAST YEAR, 122 CASES HAD BEEN SUCCESSFULLY PROSECUTED WITH ALL THE OFFENDERS FINED AND THEIR CATCHES CONFISCATED. SOME OF THE OFFENDERS WERE EVEN SENTENCED TO THREE MONTHS' IMPRISONMENT SUSPENDED FOR TWO YEARS, HE SAID.

DR LEE SAID OVER THE PAST YEAR, THE LOCAL FISHING FLEET HAD BEEN AFFECTED BY THE RISE IN OIL PRICES, TENSION IN LABOUR SUPPLY AND THE GRADUAL DECREASE · IN FISH RESOURCES AT THE CONVENTIONAL FISHING GROUNDS.

"THE LANDINGS OF THE FISHERMEN SUFFERED A SLIGHT COMPARED WITH THOSE OF THE PREVIOUS YEAR.

DROP WHEN

"NEVERTHELESS, BECAUSE OF THE EFFORTS MADE BY THE HARDWORKING FISHERMEN, FISH LANDINGS SOLD THROUGH THE FMO MARKETS STILL AMOUNTED TO OVER 67,000 TONNES AT A TOTAL VALUE OF OVER $580 MILLION, DR LER ADDED.
