The precise nature of the report referred to by the Deputy is not clear. My Department is aware of a report entitled 'Protecting Wild Atlantic Salmon from Impacts of Salmon Aquaculture: A Country-by-country Progress Report' which was published jointly by the World Wildlife Fund and Atlantic Salmon Federation in May 2003.
