HC Deb 22 February 1901 vol 89 c870
MR. NORMAN (Wolverhampton, N.)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether a proposition was made by the Board of Trade to the Treasury to expend a small sum upon and experimental establishment for fish culture, and whether the proposition was accepted or declined.

MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN

The proposals of the Board of Trade are engaging the attention of His Majesty's Government, as part of the general question of the measures calculated to cultivate and develop the fishing grounds from which the markets of this country are supplied.
