SEA LICE numbers at all Scottish fish farms will now be published, MSPs were told at a Holyrood inquiry into the environmental impacts of salmon farming.
Last month the Scottish Parliament’s Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform Committee heard a review of the scientific evidence, published by the Dunbeg-based Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS).
Last week the watchdog took evidence from David Sandison of the Scottish Salmon Producers Organisation, and John Aitchison of Friends of the Sound of Jura, which campaigned against plans to install a fish farm at Dounie in the Sound of Jura.
