§ MR. J. G. WEIR (Ross and Cromarty)I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether he is aware that the engineers to the Fishery Board for Scotland failed during the construction of Balintore Harbour to require the removal of certain rocks, whereby fishing boats and other crafts are exposed to serious danger; and whether steps will be taken to secure the removal of these rocks at an early date?
§ THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. GRAHAM MURRAY,) ButeshireI am informed by the Fishery Board that the engineers who planned the harbour, and who were appointed by the harbour trustees, do not know to what rocks this Question can refer, as the excavations were finished in accordance with the plans and specifications in September 1893, with the exception of a few yards of rock outside the harbour entrance, which were removed in February 1895.
