HC Deb 23 June 1899 vol 73 c456
MAJOR RASCH

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, having regard to the necessity of legislation for the protection of immature fish, he will give facilities for the discussion and passing of the Undersized Fish Bill during the present session.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I shall be very glad to see this Bill referred to a Select Committee, which, I think, has been suggested by my right hon. friend in charge of the Bill, as mentioned by the hon. Member for Grimsby in the question lower down on the Paper, and I hope there will be no opposition from any part of the House.
