TAMPIN: The Fisheries Department Malaysia has lifted the ban on the harvesting and sale of shellfish, including mussels in the waters of Port Dickson and Melaka, following a drop in biotoxin to safe levels.
Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Arthur Joseph Kurup said as a result of laboratory monitoring and analysis, biotoxin readings showed a decrease to below 400 parts per billion (ppb) for the 15th sample.
