§ MR. JOHN WILSON (Falkirk Burghs)I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether, owing to the extra labour involved by the Fatal Accidents Inquiry Act, it is intended to appoint an additional sheriff substitute for Lanarkshire; and, if so, will he make it a condition of his appointment that he shall reside in Lanark, seeing that there is no sheriff resident in the Upper Ward?
§ * THE LORD ADVOCATEIn reply to the question of my hon. Friend, I have to inform him that it is intended to appoint an additional sheriff substitute for Lanarkshire, and that the question of his place of residence is now under consideration.
