HC Deb 07 July 1965 vol 715 c216W
41. Mr. Henry Clark

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what evidence he has received that salmon bred and marked in Northern Irish rivers are being netted in large quantities in the North Atlantic.

Mr. Hoy

I have received no evidence that any salmon bred and marked in Northern Irish rivers have been netted in the North Atlantic. This absence of evidence does not however prove that no fish of Northern Irish origin have been caught in this area.
