Mr. Boothby

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether, in view of the shortage of food, he will give directions that all craft now in the service of his Department which are suitable for fishing shall be released at the earliest possible moment.

Mr. Alexander

All craft suitable for fishing, apart from those which it is essential to retain for naval service, are being, and will continue to be, released as quickly as possible.
