MR. BIRKBECK

asked the President of the Local Government Board, Whether it is the intention of the Government to bring in this Session a measure to amend "The Rivers Pollution Prevention Act, 1876," so as to make that Act more effective as regards the protection of fisheries throughout the United Kingdom?

MR. DODSON,

in reply, said, that in the present state of public affairs he was afraid that he could not hold out any hope that the Government would be able to introduce a Bill on this subject this Session.
