said, he would beg leave to ask the Lord Advocate, If any Commissioners of the Herring Fishery have been appointed in pursuance of the power granted to Her Majesty by the Act passed last Session to nominate five additional Commissioners; and if not, whether it is the intention of Government to recommend the appointment of any Commissioners, and when?

THE LORD ADVOCATE

said, there had been some delay in making those appointments, but they would be made in a short time.
