HC Deb 27 February 1865 vol 177 c748
MR. M'MAHON

said, he would beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade, Whether he expects the Report of the Special Commission on Sea Fisheries to be presented in time to enable him to carry in this Session a Bill founded on their recommendations?

MR. MILNER GIBSON

said, in reply, that the Commissioners expected to con-elude their inquiry at Easter, and that their Report might be expected to be laid before the House in May or June. He did, however, not think it probable that Parliament would be able to legislate on the subject this Session.
