HC Deb 20 November 1902 vol 115 c21
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate, whether the Secretary for Scotland is aware that the Lewis District Committee report that although they have called upon the Parish Council of Uig, Stornoway, under threat of legal proceedings, to take immediate steps to provide burying grounds in place of those at Balanakill, Kirivig, and Little Bernera. Island of Lewis, the request has not been complied with; and will he state the cause of the delay.

*MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

The matter is under consideration of the Parish Council, and as negotiations are now proceeding it seems to the Secretary for Scotland inexpedient at present to make further comment which might raise difficulties or prejudice the transactions.
