§ MR. WEIRI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he will state when a Report showing the progress made in the international scheme of North Sea Fisheries Investigation will be hid upon the Table of the House; will he state what sum has been voted by each European Power for this work; and whether France has yet been invited to take part in the investigations.
§ MR. A. J. BALFOURwas understood to reply that the information asked for would be found in the Report of the Scottish Fishery Board, which would shortly be circulated. Papers in continuation of those already presented were in course of preparation. The French Government were invited to take part in the work, but declined. As to the sums voted by foreign Powers, he would obtain the information for the hon. Member.
