HL Deb 31 July 1958 vol 211 c654WA
VISCOUNT THURSO

asked Her Majesty's Government whether the United Nations Scientific Committee have completed their investigations into the contamination of ocean waters and fish by the deposition of radioactive wastes and, if so, what conclusions they have reached.

THE JOINT PARLIAMENTARY UNDER-SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS (THE EARL OF GOSFORD)

I understand that the United Nations Scientific Committee have now completed their report on the effects of atomic radiation and that copies of it are now being reproduced by the United Nations. The report has not yet been published and I regret therefore that I cannot say at present what conclusions the Committee have reached.

House adjourned at seven minutes past seven o'clock.
