Mr GEORGE LAWSON (BRISBANE, QUEENSLAND) - I desire to ask you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, -whether you saw an article in the Sydney Sun, of the 26th October, headed in . bold 'black type, "Politicians eat illegal fish, say anglers". The article goes on to . say that fish caught illegally in the vicinity of the Burrinjuck Dam were taken to Parliament House, Canberra, every week. It is further stated that the fish were taken by dynamiting pools in streams that feed the dam. Can you say, Mr. Deputy Speaker, whether the statement is 'correct? Have you any comment to make on it?
