HC Deb 13 March 1940 vol 358 c1216W
Mr. Davidson

asked the Minister of Shipping the total number of Scottish claims for compensation for the requisitioning of fishing boats up to date; and the number of claims settled?

Sir J. Gilmour

While records of claims are not kept on a geographical basis and could not be so kept without disproportionate labour, the number of claims for hire from Scottish owners now under examination is 48. They will be dealt with in the course of the next few days. Unless questions arise, accounts for hire are now paid within 10 days of receipt.
