§ 67. Mr. GARDINERasked whether the road closed under the Defence of the Realm Act between Kenmore and Fearnan has been reopened for traffic; and, if not, when this will be done?
§ Sir A. WILLIAMSONI am making inquiries and will communicate with the hon. Member as soon as possible.
§ 65. Mr. GARDINERasked the Secretary for Scotland if his attention has been drawn to the damage done to roads in the Kenmore district, assessed at £8,000, caused by the carriage of wood owned by the Timber Supply Department, and the fact that only £3,000 has been contributed by the Joint Roads Committee; and what does he propose to do to help the Highland District Committee in this loss, over which they had no control?
§ Sir A. WILLIAMSONMy right hon. Friend has asked me to reply. I am afraid that the hon. Member has been misinformed. The total disbursements made by the Government to the High land District Committee, including work carried out by the Executive Branch of the Joint Roads Committee, amount to £9,365.
