In this sense, the EU regrets that the IOTC "has not been able to agree on any of these aspects" and considers that "an opportunity for the sustainable management of the Indian Ocean fisheries has been lost".

Considered one of the most demanding of all global seafood certification schemes, the target is to have up to five farms and facilities ASC certified by the end of 2022.
The ASC standard for farmed salmon was developed in collaboration with scientists, government agencies, NGOs, farmers, processors and retailers, and is underpinned by seven core principles spanning regulatory compliance, fish health, responsible use of feed and medicines, environmental interactions, employee conditions and community engagement.
The Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC), which held its annual meeting from 16 to 20 May, 2022, is once again being criticized by ocean-focused non-governmental organizations, which are claiming it failed to take sufficient action to conserve tuna stocks.
Environmental organizations have been pressuring the IOTC to take action on issues threatening the sustainability of skipjack and yellowfin tuna stocks in the Indian Ocean for years, arguing both species are being fished at rates above the commission’s own scientific advice.

In recent days, many media have echoed a story that 'grossly mode' came to headline that microplastics had been found in aquaculture sea bream and sea bass. A very simple and absolutely erroneous view if one does not go further, is that those microplastics "found" in farmed sea bream and sea bass and analyzed in a scientific study published by ULL researchers in the journal Polymers, refer to microplastics found in the gastrointestinal tract of these species (which is discarded for consumption), and in no case in the muscle or skin of the fish, and therefore without any risk to the consumer.
Applications are open for a relaunched scheme to support the sustainability, resilience and prosperity of England’s seafood sector.
