He said: "Government is committed to constructing and completing the fish landing site under the two programmes. The World Bank programme and the China Development Bank programme . Under the the World Bank programme, the first phase of the landing site is to be constructed here in Anloga."

President Mahama also hinted of strictly enforcing laws governing the fisheries sector.
