45. Mr. W. M'LEAN WATSONasked the Prime Minister if the Government have yet caused any inquiry to be made into the suitability of part of the land and equipment in Rosyth Dockyard for the installation on a large scale of low-temperature carbonisation plant; and, if not, will he consider the advisability of having such an inquiry?
The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the ADMIRALTY (Mr. Davidson)I have been asked to reply. I understand that a firm interested in low carbonisation has already, in collaboration with the Corporation of Dunfermline, made an inspection of the premises at Rosyth. If any proposals result, they will receive sympathetic consideration.
