§ Mr. Cleggasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what reports he has received of the state of inshore hake fisheries in the Clyde and elsewhere.
§ Mr. RossThe main Scottish inshore hake fisheries are in the Clyde and Moray Firth areas. In the Clyde the 1966 catch was one of the best for a number of years with good landings of large-sized hake during the winter fishery. In the Moray Firth area the landings have declined over the last few years.
