FISHING GROUNDS DISPUTE
INTERFERENCE WITH TRAWLERS.
PROCEDURE OF NEGOIATIONS.
(British Official Wireless.) .Rec. 5.5 p.m. Rugby, July 18. Two communications from the Norwegian Government in reply to the British Note calling attention to cases of interference with British trawlers engaged in fishing some miles off the Norwegian coast are at present undergoing careful examination at London, where it is felt that certain points still remain in need of further elucidation. A general desire is expressed here that a mutually satisfactory agreement will be reached/without undue delay. Meanwhile the British fishery patrol vessel Harebell will shortly proceed to the fishing grounds so that her commander, Captain Fraser, who is newly appointed, may familiarise himself with the conditions there. Captain Fraser will get into touch with the commander of the Norwegian fishery patrol with a view to a joint inspection of fishing grounds. The Norwegian Government has been informed that the Harebell hopes to reach Tromso on July 28.
