§ 24. Sir John MacLeodasked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he expects the series of schemes for the reconstruction of the road from Ullapool to Kylesku Ferry to be completed.
§ Mr. NobleThe reconstruction of the 33 miles from Ullapool to Kylesku Ferry is being carried out by Ross and Cromarty and Sutherland County Councils with 100 per cent. grant under the Crofter Counties Programme. The work will be complete in mid-1965.
§ Sir John MacLeodCan my right hon. Friend say how much this will cost, and by whom the cost will be met?
§ Mr. NobleThe likely cost is about £1.6 million. As I have said, it is met under the Crofter Counties Programme, so no part of the cost will fall on the local authorities concerned.
