§ Mr. W. TAYLORasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has any later information concerning the steam drifters and sailing trawlers from Norfolk ports with regard to which an appeal for information was broadcast?
§ Mr. N. BUXTONAll the steam drifters and a number of the sailing trawlers which were overdue have now returned to port. There are, however, still seven sailing trawlers which are considerably overdue, and their absence is causing anxiety. H.M.S. "Sutton" is on the fishing grounds searching for them. At 12 noon to-day the Hospital Ship "Queen Alexandria" (L.O. 51), belonging to the Royal National Mission for Deep Sea Fishermen, joined in the search, her crew having asked for permission to do so.
