GROWING OYSTERS
MATTER BEING CONSIDERED
Advice that the chamber's opinions ;iipon oyster cultivation as a private .enterprise were receiving consideration, has been received by the Auckland Chamber of Commerce from the Minister of Marine (the Hon. P. Fraser), states today's "New Zealand Herald." At the beginning of August •the chamber wrote to the Minister drawing his attention to the recommendation of the Sea Fisheries Investigation Committee that settlers in districts where the Government was not in the oyster business should have the right to lease the foreshore abutting their land for the purpose of cultivating oysters and asking what action was going to be taken.
In his letter the Minister has stated that a reply was deferred for consideration of the committee's findings, which were far-reaching and worthy of deep consideration, before a definite decision could be given. At present he could do no more than assure the chamber that the matter was being considered.
