HC Deb 11 December 1902 vol 116 cc899-900
MR. WEIR () Ross and Cromarty

To ask the Lord Advocate if he will state what progress has been made with the construction of a protecting wall for the Skigersta Pier, in the parish of Barvas, Island of Lewis.

(Answered by Mr. A. Graham Murry.)

It cannot be said that any progress has been made with the comtruction of this work, the County Council not having as yet come to a decision on the offer made to them by the Congested Districts Board in June 1901; but, in answer to an inquiry by that Board, the County clerk, on 11th October last, wrote to the effect that the County Finance Committee hoped to be in a position to proceed with the works before 31st December, up to which date the offer by the Board is available.
