CONTROLS on Baltic fisheries have taken a step forward since the accession of Poland to the European Union.
Joe Borg, the European Commissioner for Fisheries and Maritime Affairs, hailed the improvement in a visit to Warsaw yesterday.
Topics to be discussed on the visit include the establishment of long-term measures for the conservation of Baltic cod, improving compliance with conservation measures through better control and monitoring of fisheries measures, processing of fisheries products, the financial aid available to the fisheries sector under the current and next Fisheries Funds (2007-2013) and a future Maritime Policy for the Union.

Should people be 'stimulated' to eat white fish alternatives to cod?
