§ Sir Cranley OnslowTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what consultation he has now had, following the report of the Salmon Advisory Committee, about the provision of fish passes and fish screens; and whether he now intends to make regulations on this question under the provisions of the Salmon Act 1986.
§ Sir Hector Monro[holding answer 14 January 1994]: Consideration is now being given to the responses received, in the latter part of 1993, from the wide range of interests consulted on proposals for new Scottish fish pass and fish screen regulations. I hope to lay the regulations before Parliament by the summer.
