HC Deb 05 June 1919 vol 116 c2239W
Mr. WASON

asked the Secretary to the Admiralty whether upon the signing of Peace it is proposed immediately to remove the vessels sunk in Molen Sound, Orkney, so that access may be had to the pier of St. Mary's, where a considerable fishing industry is carried on upon which many of the inhabitants depend for their livelihood?

Dr. MACNAMARA

The Board of Admiralty already have under consideration the question of reopening Kirk Sound for navigation, but the operation is attended with considerable difficulty.
