Cermaq ASA – as the owner of Mainstream Group – has gone through the article in La Nación (Chile) regarding working conditions on salmon farms, an article which you plan to base your story on in your upcoming issue of Weekly Update. We register that this article is based on the same accusations that was published through the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet 3 years ago. These accusations was at that time proven false by the Mainstream Management and we published our denials of the accusations through an extensive Readers Letter in Dagbladet July 12th 2003.
