§ 37. Ms. RuddockTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, pursuant to his answer of 9 June,Official Report, column 970, if he will make a statement on the progress of his inquiry into irradiated food dumping on Third-world countries.
§ Mr. GummerI understand that the hon. Member is referring to food which could be affected post Chernobyl. I am quite satisfied that all United Kingdom produce remained perfectly safe to eat following the Chernobyl accident, and that this applied just as much to supplies for export as to foodstuffs consumed in this country.
