Mr. John Garrett

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list in theOfficial Report the number and location of breaches of the maximum admissible concentration of single and mixed pesticides in water reported by the Anglian water authority.

Mr. Moynihan

Last year sample analyses indicated that there had been some breaches of the precautionary standard for pesticides in drinking water in some supplies provided by the Anglian water authority. However, all were within levels considered acceptable by medical advisers.
