§ Mr. Martyn JonesTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will make available the 489W information contained in the document "Radionuclide Sampling in the Environment 1987", in the form of a map with sampling points marked as accurately as possible; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Donald ThompsonI assume the publication referred to is "Radionuclide Levels in Food, Animals and Agricultural Products 1987". The information in section A of the document is given by product and by country. Section B gives a summary of live monitoring of sheep in Cumbria, Wales and by county outside the restricted areas. Section C gives laboratory results of sheepmeat sampling by zones within the restricted areas. The document summarises 279,000 monitoring results and the cost of individual mapping would be disproportionate.
