§ MR. WILLIAMSON (Elgin and Nairn)I beg to ask the Prime Minister on what date he expects to take the Second Reading of the Trawling in Prohibited Areas Prevention Bill.
§ The following Questions on the same subject also appeared on the Paper:—
§ MR. ANNAN BRYCE (Inverness Burghs)To ask the Prime Minister when he proposes to take the Second Reading of the Trawling in Prohibited Areas Prevention. Bill.
§ CAPTAIN WARING (Banffshire)To ask the Prime Minister whether he will make arrangements so that the Trawling in Prohibited Areas Prevention Bill will be proceeded with this session.
§ MR. SUTHERLAND (Elgin Burghs)To ask the Prime Minister whether the Government is to press forward the Trawling in Prohibited Areas Prevention Bill through the House this session.
§ MR. ASQUITHI am not able as yet to give a date for the Second Reading 999 of this Bill. It will be taken at the earliest convenient opportunity after the Scottish Education Bill. The Government are fully alive to its importance, but I cannot, of course, at this stage give any definite assurance as to its further progress.
