§ MR. HARMSWORTHI beg to ask the Lord Advocate, as representing the Secretary for Scotland, if he can state whether it is intended to hold an inquiry during the autumn into the condition of the herring fishery in the Firth of Clyde; and if so, if he can see his way to extend the scope of this inquiry to include all the coasts of Scotland.
MR. SCOTT DICKSONThe scope of the inquiry referred to is limited to the Firth of Clyde, and the Secretary for Scotland is not prepared to suggest to the Fishery Board to extend it to the whole coast of Scotland.
