asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether his Department have had submitted to them detailed plans and estimates for a mid-Scotland ship canal, viâ Loch Lomond, with four locks; and would the Department allow an eminent engineer to examine the plans, etc., on behalf of the Corporation of Glasgow, or other corporations, who are supporters of a sea-level canal by the direct route, with a view to their submitting to the Admiralty similar plans, etc., of the direct route at sea-level with two sea-gates?

Plans have been submitted to the Admiralty for a canal viâ Loch Lomond, but they are not the property of the Admiralty, and the Admiralty has no authority to dispose of them.
