§ Mr. WilsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what assessment he has made of the Ernst and Young report on subsidies to the Norwegian salmon farming industry; and if he will make a statement.
§ Sir Hector MonroI have encouraged Scottish salmon producers to provide the European Commission with such information as is available on alleged unfair support for Norwegian salmon farmers. I have read the Ernst and Young report with interest, and I understand that the report262W is now in the hands of the European Commission which must decide whether it warrants full and formal investigation.
