Rural Affairs and Islands Committee

Salmon Farming in Scotland

Meeting date: 12 June 2024

Rhoda Grant

Environmental standards on medicine use have been tightened since the publication of the REC Committee’s report. Have you seen a reduction in the testing of medical residues since that tightening took place?

Salmon Farming in Scotland

Meeting date: 12 June 2024

Rhoda Grant

Have you seen any impact from the tightening of the regulations on fish health, or has fish health remained the same since the regulations changed?

Salmon Farming in Scotland

Meeting date: 12 June 2024

Rhoda Grant

I want to ask about new technologies such as enclosed cages, on-land cages, and the impact they may have. Will they have an impact on fish health? Could they mitigate some of the current problems? I am thinking of the lack of experimental cages and the like in Scotland.

Rhoda Grant

I want to ask about banned substances. Some organisations have suggested that there should be an independent regulatory body to look for such substances.

One of the recommendations of the Scottish Animal Welfare Commission was that no further greyhound tracks be permitted in Scotland. What is your response to that?

Rhoda Grant

At the moment, you can do something on licensing? In what regard can you do something on licensing in relation to greyhound tracks?

Rural Affairs and Islands Committee

Petition

Meeting date: 22 May 2024

Rhoda Grant

Okay, but if someone decided tomorrow to open a greyhound track, they would be able to do that, if their local authority gave them planning permission, because there is no licensing scheme.

Rhoda Grant

What tools do you have to take action in that regard? We do not have licensing at the moment. Could planning permission be denied? How could you influence whether one opened?

Rhoda Grant

There is no drug testing at Thornton either, so we do not know if there is any substance misuse there.

Rhoda Grant

Okay. So, you have given it no thought.
