HC Deb 21 July 1959 vol 609 c1060
39. Sir W. Anstruther-Gray

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will make a statement regarding the Eye mouth Harbour improvement scheme.

Lord John Hope

The Harbour Commissioners put forward a scheme estimated to cost between £350,000 and £500,000 for a new harbour entrance. At my right hon. Friend's request they are considering whether a less costly scheme would meet the needs of the harbour. The consulting engineers are in touch with the Hydraulics Research Station about the cheaper of the two schemes investigated by that station.
