Smithasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty if he is aware that, in dismantling the Pluto drum off Littlestone-on-Sea, Kent, the contractors are not removing the pipes cut at sea; that these pipes constitute a danger to inshore shipping; that the Dungeness fishermen have lost many nets because of these underwater obstructions; and if he will take steps to remedy the nuisance.
