HC Deb 23 June 1938 vol 337 c1287W
Mr. Malcolm MacMillan

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware of the lack of a connecting road between the main road and the settlement of smallholders at Glen, Tolsta, Isle of Lewis; that all goods and provisions have to be carried over moorland bog and a rocky track and medical aid is delayed and made difficult; and what early steps he proposes to take and what steps the other authorities responsible are taking?

Mr. Burgin

Yes, Sir. This is a matter for the local authority. I have received no application from the county council, but in any event it does not appear that such a road would be of sufficient through traffic value to warrant a grant from the Road Fund.
