MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN (for Mr. CLANCY)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether his attention has been drawn to the complaints made by the fishermen of Howth and Rush, County of Dublin, and of other places on the east coast of Ireland, as to the practice of steam trawlers running deliberately through their lines; and whether, if those complaints are well founded, he will consider the desirability of devising some remedy for the hardship and loss thus inflicted on the fishing community?
§ *MR. JACKSONI must make further inquiries with regard to this matter before I can reply to the question of the hon. Member.
