§ Mr. WilsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland how many notifications have been made by salmon farmers for the use of ivermectin in each of the River Purification Authority areas in Scotland under the conditions of discharge consent before 6th June 1991.
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonIvermectin is not licensed for use in fish in the United Kingdom and accordingly river purification authorities would not expect to be notified of its use by salmon farmers. Any information on individual notifications is held by the river purification authorities and is not available centrally.
