HC Deb 07 August 1975 vol 897 c427W
Sir Bernard Braine

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will propose to the International Whaling Commission a 10-year moratorium from whaling in order to prevent the inevitable extermination of certain species of whale and also to allow whale stocks generally to recover from excessive exploitation.

Mr. Bishop

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave to the hon. Member for the Isle of Wight (Mr. Ross) on 5th August. [Vol. 897, c.135.]
