HC Deb 30 July 1918 vol 109 cc241-2
61. Sir JOHN BARRAN

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether, in view of the advance of the netting season, he can now announce the steps decided on for an extension of this season in the early future in different localities?

The LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. Clyde)

I am in consultation with the Fishery Board for Scotland and the Food Ministry in this matter. I am aware of the importance of an early decision, and hope to intimate one shortly.

Mr. GULLAND

Will it be intimated before the House rises?

Mr. CLYDE

I should hope so.
