HONG KONG - Hong Kong leader John Lee on Tuesday said the city will ban seafood products from a large number of Japanese prefectures if Tokyo goes ahead with a plan to discharge treated water from the crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant into the ocean.
Japan’s plan, approved by UN nuclear watchdog the International Atomic Energy Agency , has faced opposition at home and abroad over concerns for food safety. Tokyo says the releases will be safe and meet global standards. “If the exercise really starts, we’ll be banning a large number of prefectures’ sea products,” he said.
Mr Lee said he had asked Hong Kong’s secretary for the environment and ecology to form a multi-department team to design the city’s action plan.
