HC Deb 02 July 1987 vol 118 c152W
Mr. Ron Brown

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he has received representations about contaminated food found in Safeways' Edinburgh stores; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Michael Forsyth

My right hon. and learned Friend has received no representations about this matter other than the private notice question from the hon. Member himself on 30 June.

The Lothian and Borders police force is continuing its investigation in close consultation with the director of environmental health of Edinburgh district council and it is important that that investigation should proceed unhampered.
