Subordinate Legislation Committee, 25 Sep 2001

Meeting date: Tuesday, September 25, 2001

Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Radioactivity in Sheep) Partial Revocation (Scotland) Order 2001 (SSI 2001/313)

The next order for consideration relates to radioactivity in sheep.

Radioactive sheep, for goodness' sake.

That goes back to Chernobyl. The instrument raises an interesting issue, as everyone has forgotten about the Chernobyl disaster.

Eighteen farms are affected. That is astonishing.

No points arise for this committee from the order.
