Freezer Trawlers

34.

Mr. Wallace
asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what representations he has received on the grants of pressure stock licences for freezer trawlers.

Mr. MacGregor
I would refer the hon. Member to the written reply which I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Ryedale (Mr. Spence) on 17 June. The Fisheries Ministers' decisions took account of the representations received from the hon. Member and others.
