§ 84. Mr. Donnellyasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is aware of the decline in the number of ships fishing from the port of Milford Haven; and what steps he is taking to safeguard the future of the fishing industry operating from that port.
Mr. AmoryYes; and I hope that the trawler-owners there will take advantage of the grants and loans available to help them rebuild their fleet. They are receiving the white fish subsidy paid to all near and middle-water vessels, and should increasingly benefit from the new mesh Regulations introduced to conserve fish stocks.
