§ Mr. LAMONTasked the Lord Advocate whether he can amplify the information furnished by him on 26th March regarding the number of hundredweights of herring landed within the five Clyde fishery districts severally, so as to distinguish the quantity and the value of fish caught within the area of those districts from the quantity and value of fish caught outside that area.
§ Mr. UREWith the exception of 16,870 hundredweights of herrings, valued at £6,732, caught off the Irish coast and landed at Glasgow by steam trawlers, very few herrings landed at Clyde ports were caught outside the Clyde districts.
