Apr 22nd, 2015 - 04:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Shall we consider that the National Advisory Board for Mariculture (Jacumar) and the National Advisory Board of Continental Harvests (Jacucon) already exist?
And how much will the coordinated monitoring committee and the three working groups cost? €420 million? All those salaries, holidays, expenses, benefits, siestas, sangria. Isn't spain supposed to be broke? Is this money coming from the Rajoy slush fund? And doesn't spain already have aquaculture? Commonly known as illegally fishing and poaching in British Gibraltar Territorial Waters?
I hear there's a new plan. Given the illegal poaching activity that takes place in BGTW at the end of Gibraltar's runway, British aircraft will now defend Gibraltar resources by dropping a bomb as they take off. It is hoped that some bombs will overshoot and hit Algeciras!

At a guess, I'd say, fish-flavoured yogurt ??
They could probably just run back in forth with an outboard off the coast and chop up all the African migrant bodies floating around.

Apr 23rd, 2015 - 06:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Top 5 exports of the falklands/Malvinas.
#1 Mollusks (75%).
Top 5 export destinations.
#1 Spain (74%).
No need to import those extremely vital mollusks now.
The money will never materialise until it's in the pockets of the 'ruling party'.
Apr 23rd, 2015 - 06:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I thought most of the Spanish aquatic life was toad-like if Gollum2 is anything to go by.

Apr 23rd, 2015 - 10:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What has this got to do with Spain importing “Scampi” from Scotland ?
#10 did not mention the Falklands and I did not mention the Falklands, so what is your very obscure point ?
well Ill take it your not talking to yourself.
Apr 23rd, 2015 - 11:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#13 did not mention Scampi and I did not mention Scotland. So whats your very obscure problem ?
If Spain produces its own mollusks (and jobs in aquaculture btw) then it wont have much need of imported mollusks (or labor )now will it, that should have an interesting consequence in the falklands/malvinas.
Given 75% of kel?ite exports go to Spain and 74% of the colony's exports are mollusks.

Apr 24th, 2015 - 12:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0There is nothing about creating new jobs, or expanded production.
This is an existing fishery, and Spain's appetite for seafood is becoming harder and harder to fullfil, with traditional fish stocks declining.
In fact, the idea of “managing” a fishery usually involves monitoring fish stocks and fishing practices, to ensure there is no “overfishing” or depletion of the resource.
It's more likely that Spain will need more and more seafood from the Falklands and others.
Why would you say otherwise?
Nothing new here Molly Malone had a monopoly on this for years....
