Captain Bullock
asked the Minister of Food what steps have been taken to modernise and improve the systems of refrigeration in the fishing industry.
Colonel Llewellin
I arranged last year for the installation of experimental plants for the quick-freezing of herrings at Aberdeen, and, in association with the Herring Industry Board, these experiments will be extended to Fraserburgh and Great Yarmouth during the 1945 season. I also understand that several firms are now contemplating developing facilities for refrigeration. I shall give all suitable proposals of this kind as much support as I can.
