However, additional data is not required for regulation and its provision would generate data collection, handing and processing by producers at both a site and company level, as well as by the Scottish Government’s Fish Health Inspectorate, and this is disproportionate to the regulatory need.

To ask the Scottish Government what assessment it has made of the environmental and climate impacts associated with the importation of salmon feed used in the aquaculture sector, including on transport emissions and the sustainability of any wild-caught fish. The Scottish Government has not commissioned an assessment of the environmental and climate impacts associated with the importation of salmon feed, however the Scottish Government Rural Affairs and Environmental Portfolio Strategic Research Programme has supported relevant research by Scotland’s Rural College on greenhouse gas emissions from Scottish aquaculture, which can be found here: rpc-research-briefing-quantifying-aquaculture-greenhouse-gas-emissions.pdfIt is well known that fish feed makes up a significant proportion of carbon emissions in the salmon supply chain, and the sector is working to find ways to improve efficiency and reduce emissions further.
