HC Deb 20 June 1985 vol 81 c205W
13. Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will list all those organisations that have received licences to kill (a) herons and (b) cormorants in 1985.

Mrs. Fenner

I refer the hon. Member to the replies I gave him on 25 and 30 April. No licences to kill either cormorants or herons have been issued by my Department in 1985. Of the licences to kill cormorants issued in 1984, one issued to a "put and take" fishery remains valid until October 1985.
