HC Deb 03 July 1969 vol 786 c121W
53. Mr. James Johnson

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity if she will make a statement about the progress being made on the registration of fishermen in the country as a whole and in the port of Hull in particular.

Mr. Harold Walker

I understand that this matter has been considered by the Holland-Martin Committee of Inquiry into Trawler Safety set up by my right hon. Friend, the President of the Board of Trade. As he indicated in his reply to my hon. Friend yesterday, he expects publication towards the end of July when he will make a preliminary statement.—[Vol. 786, c. 107.]
