§ MR. J. W. CROMBIE (Kincardineshire)I beg to ask the Lord Advocate, whether complaints have reached him of French luggers fishing off the Aberdeenshire and Kincardineshire coast stealing the nets of the line fishermen; and, if not, whether he will investigate any case where the allegations can be put before him?
§ THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. GRAHAM MURRAY, Buteshire)No complaints of the nature referred to have reached me. If information of any specific charge of such theft is made to the Fishery Board the matter will at once be investigated.
