HC Deb 12 January 1976 vol 903 c72W
Mr. Donald Stewart

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will show the landings of fish by volume and value in Scottish ports for the last six months for which figures are available, and the corresponding figures for the same period last year.

Mr. William Ross

For the six month period May to October, the latest for which figures are available, the volume of landings at Scottish ports declined from 235,000 to 211,000 tons compared with the same period in 1974, but the value increased from £31.2 million to £31.8 million.
