Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what proportion of the pollutant linkage identified by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency in the foreshore areas of Dalgety Bay has been cleared since May 2021.

Until such time as the works are completed, it is not possible to calculate the proportion of pollutant linkage identified by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency in the foreshore areas of Dalgety Bay that has been cleared since May 2021.

However, to date, 85% of the work has been completed with 3,200 particles of contamination being removed from 7,000 cubic meters of foreshore.
