§ MR. WEIRI beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland, having regard to the fact that the interests of line fishermen suffer through illegal trawlers sweeping the fishing beds off the coast of Scotland, will he state whether the funds at the disposal of the Scottish Fishery Board are yet sufficient to admit of the sea police being strengthened by the purchase of another fishery cruiser; and, if not, will he state what sum has been accumulated for this purpose.
§ MR. SINCLAIRI am informed that after the beginning of the financial year the Fishery Board will be in a position to acquire an additional cruiser, according to the arrangement made some time ago.
