HC Deb 31 July 1902 vol 112 c273
MR. WEIR

To ask the Lord Advocate, in view of the fact that eight trawlers owned by the Grimsby and North Sea Steam Trawling Company, and six trawlers owned by the Metropolitan Steam Fishing Company have been transferred to the Norwegian flag, and registered at Brevig under the name of the Zodiac Steam Fishing Company, so that as foreign trawlers they can now fish in the Moray Firth, will he state the result of the action which the Norwegian Government has taken, with a view to test the bona fides of these transfers.

(Answered by Mr. Graham Murray.) I have not yet any information to give.
