HC Deb 23 March 1869 vol 194 c2003
MR. LIDDELL

said, he wished to ask the Under Secretary of State for the Home Department, What progress has been made in the preparation of a Bill to amend the Salmon Fishery Laws of 1861 and 1865; and when he proposes to introduce such Bill?

MR. KNATCHBULL-HUGESSEN

said, in reply, that since a deputation had waited on him upon this subject he had been the fortunate recipient of much correspondence relating to it, and had been endeavouring to mature a measure for the amendment of the Salmon Fishery Laws of 1861 and 1865. At present he could give no more satisfactory answer than that he would endeavour to lay a Bill on the table at an early period.
