HC Deb 22 November 1973 vol 864 cc492-3W
Mr. Donald Stewart

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what sea areas around the Scottish coast are being used for the dumping of radioactive wastes.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

There is no dumping of solid radioactive waste in Scottish waters. Some liquid waste of limited radioactive content is disposed of in waters out from the areas where organisations using radioactive material are sited. All such discharges are strictly controlled.
