HC Deb 23 October 1968 vol 770 cc282-3W
Mr. Buchanan-Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is satisfied with the level of returns in the fishing industry; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Buchan

With the subsidies we are providing I think the returns to the industry should be generally satisfactory. I have nothing to add to the statement about the Government support for the industry by my hon. and right hon. Friends on 15th May and 8th July and in the debate on fish subsidies on 24th July.—[Vol. 764, c. 1311–16; Vol. 788, c. 54–60; Vol. 769, c. 495–8.]
