# Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment minister, Dion George, has condemned threats by fishing groups to block roads and disrupt harbour operations in St Helena Bay in the Western Cape from Monday. George says such actions will not advance community rights and has called for law enforcement to protect public safety. He warned that disruption and intimidation harm the communities they claim to support. The minister stressed that fishing rights disputes must follow proper legal channels.
