The Norwegian Seafood Council (NSC) is pushing back against getting involved in a massive class-action lawsuit alleging Norwegian salmon giants colluded to fix salmon prices.

On May 28, US District Court of Florida Judge Cecilia Altonaga denied a motion by NSC to "quash" a subpoena that NSC said "seeks a vast amount of information relating to NSC’s government-authorized and government-supervised activities in Norway."
