§ 30. Mr. Russell Johnstonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he has yet received payment for Raasay Home Farm, which has been sold by his Department.
§ Mr. BuchanMy right hon. Friend expects payment in full of the purchase price not later than 31st October, 1967.
§ Mr. JohnstonI hope that the expectation of the hon. Gentleman will be realised. May I ask him if he will now admit that the activities of Dr. Green of Raasay are a public scandal? Can he now assure me that his Department or the Highlands and Islands Development Board will do something to release the stranglehold on development which this man has on the island?
§ Mr. BuchanThis is one of those questions where it would not be helpful for me to make any further comment. I know that the Highlands and Islands Development Board has discussed the position with the hon. Member, and no doubt would be prepared to do so again.
