HC Deb 09 November 1906 vol 164 c854
MR. REES (Mongomery Boroughs)

To ask the hon. Member for South Somerset, as representing the President of the Board of Agriculture, whether any orders of the Fishery Board apply to Montgomery county and district; and, if so, whether any such orders have been published in Welsh and English in the newspapers of Montgomeryshire; and, if the answer to the latter question be in the negative, whether he will arrange for such publication in order that the inhabitants of the county may discover what is the law in this behalf.

(Answered by Sir Edward Strachey.) A notice of intention to issue a certificate altering the limits of the Dovey Fishery Board, which applied, inter alia, to Montgomeryshire, was recently advertised by the Board in English in certain Welsh newspapers. We shall be glad, however, to arrange in future for the publication of such advertisements in the Welsh language also, in all cases in which there is any reason to believe that it would be useful to do so.
