§ 71. Mr. Hector Hughesasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will seek to bring up to date the work of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea by issuing a report of the recent migrations of North Sea fish as a result of the drilling for oil and gas in that area.
§ Mr. HoyI am not aware of any recent migrations of fish which could be attributed to drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea. There is therefore no ground for making a report to the International Council at the present time.
