§ 54. Mr. HOPKINasked the Minister of Agriculture if he will advise the Towy Fishery Board to grant to men who are recognised as earning their living by fishing the right to open the River Towy for net fishing from 1st February to the end of September, to bring the practice on that river into line with the rest of the country?
§ Mr. N. BUXTONThe responsibility for initiating an alteration of the by-law which would be required in this case rests with the Fishery Board. My responsibility is to confirm or disallow any such proposal. I am, therefore, unable to adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion.
