The Liberal Initiative expressed concern over the recent seizure of dried and processed fish in Caniçal, a region where traditional dried gaiado is produced. The party believes it is necessary to find a balance between complying with food safety standards and preserving an activity that is linked to the history and economy of the parish.
António Nóbrega, from the Liberal Initiative, argues that the competent authorities should clarify the necessary conditions for the legal production of this traditional product. The party requests clarification of the rules applicable to this activity, considering that the lack of information may be harming local producers.
The seizure of dried fish in Caniçal has raised doubts among the parish's professionals, who are now seeking clearer guidance on the legal requirements for the production and commercialization of dried gaiado. This activity represents a local tradition with economic importance for the community.
