MELBOURNE: Petition about seafood, pork food rules
A petition calling for traditional methods of seafood preparation in Melbourne has been presented to State Parliament.
Emma Kealy, Lowan MLA (pictured), presented a petition bearing 40 signatures, with concerns that the Labor Government’s Animal Care and Protection Bill will lead to the loss of access to fresh and local seafood and pork products in Chinatown and other Victorian restaurants, having a significant impact through the loss of tradition and culture related to food.
The petitioners are calling on the Allan Labor Government to preserve the tradition of housing seafood in aquariums and maintaining access to fresh Victorian pork products.
