§ Mr. Macquistenasked the Minister of Transport when the Crinan Canal was 367W closed; how long it is to be closed; and if he will endeavour to accelerate its reopening by putting additional men on the job?
§ Mr. BurginThe Crinan Canal had to be closed on 15th June when the sea-gates were seriously damaged by a laden vessel. I hope that it will be reopened this week-end but this depends upon the gate sluice castings being received from Glasgow. Extra men have been employed in the Canal workshops.
