HC Deb 12 December 1996 vol 287 c350W
20. Mr. Clifford Forsythe

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what was the redd count of migrating fish in the Lough Neagh catchment area for(a) 1993–94, (b) 1994–95 and (c) 1995–96. [7335]

Mr. Ancram

The redd count for salmon in the Lough Neagh catchment area in 1993–94, 1994–95 and 1995–96 was 42, 73 and 55 respectively. It is not possible to provide migratory trout (dollaghan) redd counts as these are indistinguishable from resident brown trout redds.
