HC Deb 14 May 1984 vol 60 c43W
Mr. Foulkes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will now publish the latest available information for 1982 and 1983 in a form similar to that of table 29 of the aquatic environment monitoring report on radioactivity in surface and coastal waters of the British Isles, 1981, published by the Directorate of Fisheries Research in 1983.

Mr. Ancram

Since 1966 the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food has published reports on its environmental monitoring for radioactivity, including that undertaken in Scotland on behalf of the Secretary of State. The information for 1982 and 1983 will be published in the usual format as soon as preparation of the reports is complete; I understand that the report for 1982 is expected to be ready later this year and that for 1983 early in 1985.
