HC Deb 01 July 1947 vol 439 c133W
10. Mr. E. Evans

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether the Herring Industry Board has completed arrangements for the catching and transport of herring to Germany in order that the terms of the contract for the supply of herring from British ports shall be successfully completed.

Mr. Westwood

Yes. The arrangements made by the Herring Industry Board with the catchers, curers and exporters will I hope ensure that, with a normal season, the quantities of cured and fresh herring which we have undertaken to supply to Germany will be delivered.
