HC Deb 09 July 1980 vol 988 c175W
23. Mr. Sproat

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he next plans to meet representatives of the fishing industry to discuss problems caused by renegotiation of the common fisheries policy.

Mr. Younger

I meet representatives of the fishing industry frequently to discuss the renegotiation of the common fisheries policy and would certainly expect to do so before the next Council of Fisheries Ministers. My noble Friend the Minister of State met industry representatives most recently on 3 July to discuss the current economic problems facing them.
