Mr. G. M. Thomson gave a verbal report of the work done since the last meeting by the Fisheries Committee. He stated that a meeting had been held between the committee, the council of the Acclimatisation Society, and the members of the General Assembly resident in Dunedin, at which it was resolved to impress strongly upon the Government the desirability of establishing a fish-hatchery at Purakanui, as proposed by the committee. Mr. Thomson also stated that he had written to the Chairman of the Scottish Fisheries Board and to the United States Commissioner for Fisheries for certain specific information on the matter.
