§ 32. Mr. Peter Millsasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what effect has the pollution of the Bristol Channel had on the fish life in that area; and if his Department will take samples of fish there in the interest of consumers.
§ Mr. PriorThere is no evidence that commercial species of fish have been endangered by pollution in the Bristol Channel. Nevertheless, my Department is continuing to monitor for the presence of persistent and potentially toxic residues.
