HC Deb 08 December 1970 vol 808 c223
3. Mr. Dalyell

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what research is being financed by his Department into fisheries in the Indian Ocean.

Mr. Prior

None, Sir.

Mr. Dalyell

Would it not be wiser to spend a little money on research rather than spend £120 million on Indian Ocean bases?

Mr. Prior

That is a totally different question from the one on the Order Paper.
