HC Deb 28 April 1993 vol 223 c417W
Mr. William Ross

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when he expects the new fish pass at Toome to be fully in operation.

Mr. Hanley

The new fish pass at Toome has been substantially complete since December. However, operation has been delayed pending the completion of some additional features requested by fisheries interests. Completion of these works is dependent on low downstream levels in the River Bann, but it is intended that the fish pass will be fully operational by early June.
