HC Deb 05 June 1891 vol 353 c1717
MR. E. KNATCHBULL-HUGESSEN

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether it is necessary to keep the moorings which have not been used since H.M.S. Hydra left the Medway River; and whether, if they are required, the Dockyard authorities will cause a lighter to be placed at them to indicate their position, and thus prevent great and continuous loss to the fishermen by injury to their nets?

THE SECRETARY TO THE ADMIRALTY (Mr. FORWOOD,) Lancashire, S.W., Ormskirk

The question of the hon. Member only appeared on the Paper this morning. I must therefore ask him to defer it until Tuesday next.
