§ Mr. James JohnsonOn a point of order. May I seek your guidance, Mr. Speaker, on a matter affecting my constituents? I have a Question, No. 58, to the President of the Board of Trade about the tragic loss of the fishing vessel, "St. Finbarr", sailing out of Hull; the loss of the vessel with also the loss of 12 lives off the coast of Labrador.
Is it not the custom of this House that the Minister responsible for safety at sea should come to the House at the end of Question time and make a statement about such a disaster?
§ Mr. SpeakerI have sympathy with the hon. Member in the question he is raising, but it is not a matter for me. The Minister has not informed me that he wishes to answer that Question now.
