HC Deb 12 July 1993 vol 228 cc395-6W
Mr. Austin Mitchell

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what has been the budget allocation to her legal department for fishery matters including prosecutions in each year since 1989.

Mr. Jack

There is no separate budget allocation in the legal department for fishery matters.

Mr. Jack

I refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave the hon. Member for Glanford and Scunthorpe (Mr. Morley) on 2 February, column 133 and, more generally, to the announcement which I made in the course of the debate on the fishing vessels decommissioning scheme on 7 July, column 413.
