HC Deb 12 August 1913 vol 56 cc2241-2
28. Mr. NOEL BUXTON

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture whether his attention has been called to the frequent theft of crab and lobster pots by the crews of coasting vessels on the East Coast of England; whether the officers of fishery district committees have forwarded information on the subject to the Board; and what remedy he can suggest?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The answer to the first and second parts of the question is in the negative. I shall be glad to consider any representation which may be made to me in the matter.
