HC Deb 25 April 1969 vol 782 c142W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will seek to provide that licence fees for fisheries should be allocated solely for the purpose of the development of angling.

Mr. Ross

Licence fees are not payable in Scotland at present. The Hunter Committee recommended the introduction of a system of rod and net licences, but I should prefer not to comment on individual recommendations until I have completed my consideration of the Committee's Report as a whole.
