HC Deb 24 July 1989 vol 157 c534W
Mr. Alan Williams

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many cases of botulism, salmonella enteriditis, salmonella typhimurium, listeriosis and other types of food poisoning have been detected and reported since 1983 for each month of each year.

Mr. Freeman

The information is not readily available in the form requested. Annual figures for 1983 to 1988 are given in the tables. It is not known how many of the campylobacter infections are food-borne.
