The Nova Scotia government is setting up a panel to develop new regulations for the aquaculture industry by the end of 2014.
Aquaculture Minister Sterling Belliveau says the panel will be led by two environmental law experts from Dalhousie University, Meinhard Doelle and William Lahey.
They will be advised by a committee that will include industry and environmental groups, the Mi’kmaq and the Union of Nova Scotia Municipalities.
