Decision ID: 000301

In October 1993 the 1971 Fund Executive Committee decided that claims for losses by a fishing equipment repair facility, a diver who carried out underwater maintenance of nets and cages of salmon farms, a person who collected and sold offal from a fish processing plant, a manufacturer of ice for keeping fish fresh and a manufacturer of boxes for transportation of fish from Shetland should be accepted since the losses should be considered as damage caused by contamination and the activities of the claimants were an integral part of the fishing activities of the affected area.
