I should remind the Minister that all that glistens is not gold. Would the Minister inform the House what steps his Department are taking about pollution at these mariculture cages around the country, particularly in view of the fact that Mulroy Bay — in his constituency — is completely contaminated?

One hears something new every day. I always thought I was au fait with happenings in my constituency and county but I am not aware of that contamination. If Deputy Begley is that aware he should certainly bring the matter to my attention——

I have brought it to the Minister's attention.

——when I will have it investigated. I will not pre-empt the outcome of my investigations but I will be very surprised if what Deputy Begley says in relation to Donegal is found to be the case. Indeed I might thank him for having advised me of the matter.
