HC Deb 26 March 1935 vol 299 cc1721-2
2. Lieut.-Colonel HENEAGE

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether the fishery cruiser "Rona" was sunk within the exclusive fishery limit of Scotland; if not, where was she sunk in the open sea; and whether he is satisfied that she now lies in such a position that she does not interfere with the legitimate trawl-fishing operations of British fishermen?

Sir G. COLLINS

The fishery cruiser "Rona" was sunk in the North Minch outside the exclusive fishery limit in 60 fathoms of water at a spot where owing to the rocky nature of the bottom, trawling cannot be carried on.
