HC Deb 19 March 1987 vol 112 c570W
Mr. kirkwood

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he has any plans to meet the American submarine authorities responsible for submarine movements in the Clyde coast and Irish sea areas to discuss the potential danger posed by submarines to United Kingdom fishing vessels.

Mr. Stanley

No. The problems of the potential interaction of fishing vessels and submarines in relatively confined areas of sea space is well appreciated by both the RN and the USN.
