HC Deb 20 November 1902 vol 115 cc22-3
MR. ALEXANDER CROSS (Glasgow, Camlachie)

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate what steps he has taken, or proposes to take, to make public the provisions of the Trout Preservation (Close Time) Act, which recently came into effect, seeing that in some localities no information regarding it is in the possession of the police, and no instructions have been received on the subject.

*MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

It is not usual for the Crown Office to take any special steps to publish the provisions of an Act of Parliament. I shall, however, be happy to make a communication to the local authorities who are responsible for the police upon the matter.

MR. ALEXANDER CROSS

To the Sheriffs of the counties, I presume?

*MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

To the local bodies.
