HC Deb 02 March 1983 vol 38 cc172-3W
17. Mr. McQuarrie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he has any plans to meet the representatives of the fish processing and producers organisations to discuss the financial and related problems in that section of the fishing industry.

Mr. John MacKay

My right hon. Friend has no immediate plans to meet representatives of these organisations. My right hon. Friend and my noble Friend the Minister of State have frequent meetings with the main representative organisations in the industry, however, and regular contact is maintained by officials.
