HC Deb 17 July 1929 vol 230 c439
89. Mr. PYBUS

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that target practice at the Harwich defences is now commenced at 10 a.m., instead of noon as heretofore, and that this early firing is menacing the livelihood of no less than 600 persons engaged in the fishing industry at Harwich, which industry is only now recovering after the War; and will he issue instructions that in future no firing shall take place until noon?

Mr. SHAW

I am having inquiries made and will communicate with the hon. Member as soon as possible.
