HC Deb 21 September 1939 vol 351 c1064
54. Mr. Cassells

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he is now prepared to consider Falkirk and Grange-mouth, with Stirlingshire, as probable areas of danger from air attack; and what steps he is prepared to take for the evacuation of children there?

Mr. Colville

At the present time a supplementary scheme of evacuation from the existing evacuation areas in Scotland is being put into operation. I regret that I cannot at present consider an extension of the existing areas, but I am keeping the position under review.

Mr. Cassells

It may be inadvisable to discuss this matter in public, but will the Secretary of State be prepared to accept certain information which I have and consider it?

Mr. Colville

I am willing to consider any information which the hon. Member puts before me.

Mr. Macquisten

Will the Secretary of State take special care to see that the Wallace Monument is protected?
