Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (East Coast) Revocation (Scotland) Order 1999 (SSI 1999/41) Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning) (Orkney) (No 2) (Scotland) Order 1999 (SSI 1999/42)

The position on these orders is much the same as before. The response from the Executive is similar to that which was dealt with in item 4. Do we want to take similar action?

I suggest that we do the same thing. I hope that this is a bedding-down process, and that we will not need to take this action more than once.

I am sure that we can ask the clerk to write that we do this more in sorrow than in anger, and to make clear how seriously we think this should be viewed by Parliament and by the Executive.
