Mr. E. P. Smithasked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether he is aware that there are still four Pluto buoys moored off Dungeness roadstead, in the East Bay, as well as other war-time obstructions which are preventing herring fishing; and if he will see that they are cleared before the drifting season begins in October.
Mr. AlexanderInstructions are being given to lift the buoys referred to by the hon. Member, as well as certain other small buoys in the area also associated with the Pluto pipe-line. I am not aware of any other war-time obstructions to fishing in these waters.
