§ 43. Mr. Grimondasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what steps have been taken to accelerate Provisional Order Procedure as it applies to piers and harbours.
§ Mr. J. StuartI hope within the next few days to announce a revised procedure which will enable Provisional Orders under the Harbours, Piers and Ferries (Scotland) Act, 1937, to be drafted, made and confirmed more quickly.
§ Mr. GrimondDoes the right hon. Gentleman also intend to raise the maximum under which an order is not required?
§ Mr. StuartI am afraid that that would require legislation. I did answer that point on 11th March.
