HC Deb 13 July 1979 vol 970 cc333-4W
Mr. McQuarrie

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what proposals are being recommended for finance to be made available to the White Fish Authority in order that grants may be made available for the construction of new fishing vessels for replacement of out-of-date vessels.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

I am very much aware of the concern in relation to the White Fish Authority grants and loans scheme. My right hon. Friend is considering the position.
