The purpose of this page is to gather information on:
1) Policies of fishery and fishing
2) Various health endpoints for substances found in fish
Different policies for fishing and fishery
Here is a list of different ways for controlling health effects due to fish consumption
- Setting maximum concentration for dioxins found in fish
-- Commission regulation (EC) No 199/2006)
-- Council Regulation (EC) No 2375/2001 of November 2001 setting maximum levels for certain contaminants in foodstuffs
- National maximum limits for methyl mercury found in fish

- Consumption advirories and recommendations
- Directing and steering fishing (kalastuksen ohjaus)
- Steering institutional kitchen
- Regional restrictions and limitations for fishing
- Financial support to aquaculture
- Imposing duty on dumping of fish (polkumyyntitulli)
Health endpoints for dioxins, methylmercury and omega-3 fatty acids
We concentrate here on dioxins, methylmercury and omega-3 fatty acids. There are also other substances with health effects which are not concidered here.
