Fish-and-chip shops should be forced to display signs revealing whether cooked fish is top-quality Australian seafood or a cheap import, said veteran Nationals senator Ron Boswell.
As tens of thousands of Australians embark on the Good Friday ritual of buying a fish meal, Senator Boswell warned they could unwittingly be served up catfish from Vietnam.
He said this could be “easily fixed by one little word saying imported or local.”
It would also apply to cafes and restaurant menus.
