67. Mr. WOMERSLEY

asked the Minister of Agriculture if any progress has been made in the direction of providing a fishery vessel for exploration of new fishery grounds, in view of the importance of the provision of such a vessel owing to the scarcity of fish on the old fishing grounds?

Captain HACKING (Vice-Chamberlain of the Household)

I have been asked to reply. A preliminary specification and estimates have been prepared, and are now receiving my right hon. Friend's consideration.
