26. Mr. Boothby

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether the Government has now considered the Report on the Herring Fishing Industry; and whether he proposes to introduce legislation to deal with this industry during the present Session.

The Report of the Herring Industry Committee is presently under consideration by the Government, and I hope to be able to make a statement on the subject at an early date.
