§ Mr. Wigleyasked the Secretary of State for Wales what information he has concerning the radioactivity contamination of salmon off the coast of Wales; and whether this is monitored regularly by his or any other Government Department.
§ Mr. Alec JonesThe effects of radioactivity in the marine environment are monitored by the Ministry of Agriculture's radio-biological laboratory at Lowestoft. The results are published annually in the series "Radio-Activity in 565W Surface and Coastal Waters of the British Isles".
Sampling of fish generally off the coast of Anglesey shows that mean levels of radioactivity are low.
