"Thank you very much for your answer. We are concerned here with ordinary, edible fish and shellfish, of which we normally recommend people in Europe to eat plenty. I therefore find it worrying that there is now a desire to increase the limit values. I must ask a couple of supplementary questions. Is it correct that the Committee of Independent Experts has in actual fact recommended a reduction in the limit values? Is it correct that the United States has stricter limit values in these areas than we have in Europe? Finally, I want to ask who has asked for these limit values to be increased. Is it the fishing industry and, if so, in which countries does the fishing industry want permission for higher limit values for the heavy metals at issue here: lead, cadmium and mercury?"@en1
