§ MR. ELLIS GRIFFITH (Anglesey)I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade what negotiations are now pending as to the removal of the Platters flocks in Holyhead Harbour; and when it is proposed to commence the work of removing the rocks?
§ MR. RITCHIEI have been and still am in communication with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on this subject, of the importance of which I am fully aware. I am not, however, yet in a position to say what the result of the negotiations will be.
§ MR. ELLIS GRIFFITHasked whether the right hon. Gentleman had any information as to when the result of the negotiations would be announced?
§ MR. RITCHIEI am afraid that I cannot say exactly when that will be.
