Question
To ask the Scottish Executive what proposals it has to increase the number of designated bathing beaches in Scotland.
Answer
The Scottish Executive has no proposals at present to increase the number of identified bathing waters in Scotland. As recently as February 1999 an additional 37 identified bathing waters were designated in Scotland. However, I will keep this matter under review and a further identification exercise will be undertaken when it is appropriate to do so.
