HC Deb 25 March 1907 vol 171 c1468
MR. LAMONT (Buteshire)

To ask the President of the Board of Trade whether the Commissioners of Northern Lights have included in their estimates for the current year the cost of erecting a lighted buoy or beacon on Clanchland Point, in the Island of Arran.

(Answered by Mr. Kearley.) The Commissioners of Northern Lights included in their estimates for 1907–8 an item for the cost of establishing a lighted buoy off the southern extremity of Hamilton Spit, but, in view of the numerous other new works of a more pressing nature, the Board of Trade are not prepared to sanction this particular proposal this year.
