HC Deb 15 July 1926 vol 198 cc611-2
39. Mr. HARRISON

asked the Minister of Agriculture when the Annual Report on the work of the Fishery Department will be published?

The MINISTER of AGRICULTURE (Mr. Guinness)

The Report on Sea Fisheries for 1925 has been sent to the printers and will be published as soon as possible.

Mr. HARRISON

Is the Minister aware that 200 copies only of the last publication were sold to the public; and does he not think it desirable to reduce the price of this publication, which deals with a technical subject and is written in the most attractive style, by bearing part of the cost of publication on the Votes of the Department?

Mr. GUINNESS

I will look into that suggestion.
