78. Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement setting out his plans to assist, by grants and loans, the inshore and other fishermen of Scotland, and indicate when he expects these plans to be put in force.

Mr. J. Stuart

I regret that I am not yet in a position to make an announcement about further assistance for the building of fishing vessels, but I hope it will be possible to do so shortly.
