Mr. J. Enoch Powellasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland why sufficient technical data have not yet 210W been assembled to designate shellfish waters in Northern Ireland, when such waters have already been designated for Great Britain.
§ Mr. David MitchellBecause the existing data were inadequate a special collection exercise has been mounted this year. The results are now being monitored. It is expected that areas will be designated next year, when I understand certain additional designations will be made for Great Britain.
