To list the manufacturers who have received the CE mark for the following items for their suitability for use when dipping sheep in organophosphate sheep dips; (a) boots; (b) overtrousers; (c) jackets; (d) aprons; (e) gloves; and (f) hats.

The Minister of State, Department of Trade and Industry (Lord Fraser of Carmyllie)

Details of manufacturers of equipment providing protection against chemical attack may be obtained from the British Safety Industry Federation, the lead association for the sector.
