HC Deb 03 July 1907 vol 177 cc698-9
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland in view of the fact that at pages 30 and 32 of the First Report of the Fishery Board for Scotland the opinion is expressed that the estuary of the Beauly and Ness rivers has been too far extended, and that there is no sufficient ground for extending the estuary beyond a line from Chanonry Point to Fort George, will he consider the expediency of calling for a Report on the subject, especially having regard to the fact that the estuary at present extends into the open sea four miles beyond the point recommended in the Fishery Board Report.

MR. SINCLAIR

The point shall be considered.
