Seafood labelling requirements introduced by the Northern Territory Government in 2008 require fish retailers advertising seafood for sale to the public to clearly label that seafood is imported if it has not been caught in Australia. Fish retailers include restaurants, cafés, take away stores and fish and chip shops. The NT is the only jurisdiction in Australia that requires the food service sector to label its seafood. The survey showed that the source of seafood has not changed dramatically as a result of the labelling laws, but there has been a drop in the use of imported product provided by seafood wholesale suppliers to fish retailers.,
