HC Deb 10 November 1958 vol 595 c1W
1. Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will make a statement on the proceedings at and decisions taken by the meeting in London last September to discuss costs and earnings of fishing enterprises and which was called by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations.

Mr. Godber

This was a technical meeting arranged to permit an exchange of views and experience on costs and earnings investigations and to discuss the methods used in study of the subject. The meeting did not aim to reach specific conclusions and no decisions were taken. A full report of the proceedings will in due course be published by the Food and Agriculture Organisation.
