HC Deb 09 June 1936 vol 313 c46W
Mr. GARRO JONES

asked the Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence whether he has initiated any inquiry into the condition of the fishing fleet in relation to defence; and, if so, whether any general answer is yet in his hands?

Sir T. INSKIP

No formal inquiry is considered necessary, but the value of the fishing fleet for defence purposes is well appreciated and Admiralty requirements are kept constantly under review.
