§ 40. Mr. MATHERSasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he has received protests against the attempted closing of a right of way at Braeheads, St. Boswells, Roxburghshire, and if he will state what action he has taken or proposes to take in the matter?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for SCOTLAND (Mr. William Adamson)My attention has been called to this matter and on inquiry I am informed that the proprietrix whose action is challenged has applied to the Court of Session for a decree of declarator that she is entitled to divert the right of way in question. Judgment has not yet been given. I have no authority to intervene.
