§ 24. Mrs. Jean Mannasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he is aware that Rothesay Town Council paid £39,797 to a Company supplying the Burgh Gas Department, for goods which have not been delivered, and have accepted £3,000 in settlement of their claim; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. WoodburnI am considering an interim report on this matter by the Auditor of the Rothesay Town Council accounts and I am therefore not in a position to make any statement at present.
§ Mrs. MannCan my right hon. Friend promise that he will make a statement later on if I put a Question on the Order Paper?
§ Mr. WoodburnI will consider that.
