The selection committee in the Norwegian Seafood Federation (FHL) is recommending Inger-Marie Sperre as the new leader for the industry organization, while Paul Birger Torgnes is nominated as chairman.

The election will take place at FHL’s annual general meeting (AGM) in Bodo, Norway from March 25-26.

Gunnar Domstein, FHL's current chairman, said he did not wish to be re-elected before the selection committee started its task. The same applied to board members Alf-Helge Aarskog, CEO of Marine Harvest, and Hanne Benjaminsen of Storbukt Fiskeindustri.
