HC Deb 29 June 1992 vol 210 cc400-1W
Mr. David Porter

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will make a statement about objective 6 of the EC regional aid programme; and how it will be able to help communities such as Lowestoft affected by a future decline in fishing.

Mr. Curry

The EC Commission has not yet produced its detailed proposals for objective 6 or elaborated on how it will propose to define fisheries-dependent areas in that context.
