HC Deb 24 July 1907 vol 178 cc1585-6
MR. MORTON

I bog to ask the Secretary for Scotland whether the Government propose to remove the cruiser from watching the trawlers in the North of Scotland?

THE SECRETARY FOR SCOTLAND (MR. SINCLAIR, Forfarshire)

No, Sir.

MR. MITCHELL-THOMSON

Is any cruiser to be withdrawn from fishery duties?

MR. SINCLAIR

The "Ringdove" is the only vessel employed at present.

MR. MORTON

Did not the right hon. Gentleman give the House to understand yesterday that the vessel was to be withdrawn?

MR. SINCLAIR

I am sorry if I gave an erroneous impression.
