HC Deb 14 March 1990 vol 169 c240W
Mr. Colvin

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what measures he will take to limit the use of the chemical atrazine.

Mr. Maclean

The use of atrazine is already restricted under the Control of Pesticides Regulations 1986. The Advisory Committee on Pesticides is at present reviewing atrazine and could if necessary recommend to Ministers that these conditions should be amended.
