HC Deb 14 April 1902 vol 106 c150
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether the Congested Districts Board have yet considered the expediency of providing funds for the construction of the middle section of the road between Carloway and Stornoway: and, if not, will he explain why the Government decline to take the necessary steps to secure the completion of this road.

* THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. A. GRAHAM MURRAY,) Buteshire

The answer to the first paragraph of the hon. Member's Question is in the affirmative; and that to the second is that the advantage to be gained does not seem to be commensurate with the outlay involved.
