HC Deb 08 November 1906 vol 164 c748
MR. BARRIE (Londonderry, N.)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been called to the action of the Loch Ryan Oyster Fishery Company in laying on the solum of the loch quantities of broken bricks and also boxes filled with stones; and, seeing that such action is a danger to shipping using the loch, which is of shallow depth, and is an important waterway between Scotland and North of Ireland, whether he will cause the practice to be prohibited in future, and also cause the present obstructions to be removed.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. LLOYD-GEORGE, Carnarvon Boroughs)

The attention of the Board of Trade has been called to the matter to which the hon. Member refers. It would take too long for me to read out the details of the case, but I shall be happy to show them afterwards to the hon. Member.
