asked the Minister of Agriculture the total weight of fish landed at Hull during the first three months of the present year; and the quantity landed in the corresponding period of last year?

Dr. ADDISON

The total weight of fish landed at Hull during the first three months of the present year amounted to 1,105,000 cwts., as compared with 954,000 cwts. during the corresponding period of last year.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that those figures are the greatest of fish landed in this country at any port?

Dr. ADDISON

I am not quite sure about that, but I think they are satisfactory.
