HL Deb 06 April 1998 vol 588 cc86-7WA
Lord Mackay of Ardbrecknish

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What estimates there are of the population of eider ducks in the west of Scotland in each of the last 10 years. [HL1274]

Lord Sewel

There are no separate population estimates for eider ducks in the west of Scotland. I am asking the chairman of Scottish Natural Heritage to write to the noble Lord with its advice on this matter, based on the information available to it.
