§ 30. Dr. M. S. Millerasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will now give approval to the plans submitted by Lanarkshire County Council for the modernisation of Blantyre's Main Street.
§ Mr. MillanMy right hon. Friend is considering a roads scheme incorporating the modernisation of Main Street, High Blantyre, which was submitted by Lanark County Council. No roads scheme affecting Blantyre is before him.
§ Dr. MillerMay I thank my hon. Friend for that reply and ask him whether, when Lanarkshire County Council places before him its plans for the modernisation of Blantyre Main Street itself, he will take the opportunity of paying an early visit to that town to see for himself the necessity for the modernisation of Main Street, which is not a scheme which is going to cost a tremendous amount of money?
§ Mr. MillanI think that proposal, when it comes, will come as part of a much larger proposal and I do not think I can comment on it until it has been submitted to us. I hope that, whether in that context or in some other, I shall have an early opportunity of visiting my hon. Friend's constituency.
