HC Deb 26 April 2001 vol 367 c315W
Mr. McGrady

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when payments will be made under the compensation scheme for former Icelandic-water trawlermen; and if he will make a statement. [158768]

Mr. Byers

Over, 1,200 payments have already been made. I expect the bulk of the claims to be dealt with by the end of July.
