HC Deb 07 February 1967 vol 740 cc288-9W
Mr. James Davidson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if there is any recent evidence of the Irish salmon disease in rivers in the north and east of Scotland.

Mr. Ross

No. Salmon Fishery District Boards have been given full information about the symptoms of the disease and have been asked to send specimens of any suspected case to the Marine Laboratory. No salmon suffering from the disease have been received or reported in recent months.
