HC Deb 23 November 1948 vol 458 c1064
27. Mr. Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many mass radiography units are in operation in Scotland; and where they are.

Mr. Woodburn

Four mass radiography units are at present in operation in Scotland: two in Glasgow, one in Edinburgh, and one in Motherwell.

Mr. Ross

While recognising that the Department has done valuable work, may I ask whether the Secretary of State will, in view of the continued and welcome expansion of industry in Ayrshire side by side with the continued but unwelcome housing conditions, take steps to set up one of these units in Ayrshire?

Mr. Woodburn

We expect three additional units to be delivered to Scotland next year, and more if they are required.
