HC Deb 07 May 1901 vol 93 c955
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate, as representing the Secretary for Scotland, having regard to the fact that page 15 of the Appendix to the Report of the Congested Districts Board shows that good pony stallions are much required for the improvement of the horses in the townships where the crofters are permitted to keep the same on the estate of Coigach, Lochbroom, Ross-shire, will he say when a pony stallion will be at the disposal of the district.

*MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

I am informed by the Congested Districts Board that they are at this moment in communication with the Coigach district on the subject of the supply of a pony stallion. But, I may add that the Appendix to the Annual Report of the Congested Districts Board shows that they will give their best consideration to all its recommendations, and carry out those which commend themselves to the Board as opportunities afford.
