	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>The UK’s national seismic network is operated by the British Geological Survey (BGS), a Research Centre of the Natural Environment Research Council. The network will detect almost all earthquakes of local magnitude 2 and above in the UK. The network does detect events with magnitude less than 2, but some will not be recorded as the ability to detect an event reliably diminishes with increasing distance from the closest seismometer stations. Seismic events in the UK since June 2004 are shown in Table 1 below. The BGS network detects around 100 earthquakes in the UK annually. Further information on seismic monitoring in the UK can be found at <a href="http://www.earthquakes.bgs.ac.uk/" target="_blank">http://www.earthquakes.bgs.ac.uk/</a>.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>TABLE 1.
