§ Mr. McInnesasked the Secretary of State for Scotland on what date the sum of £250,000 was made available for the improvement of Renfrew Airport; and how much has been expended to date.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterI have been asked to reply.
I assume the hon. Member is referring to the Renfrew Airport Terminal Area development scheme mentioned at Item 9 of Subhead A.1, Vote 4, Civil Estimates, Class IX, 1955–56. Funds for this scheme, which is estimated to cost £282,000, were first voted in 1952–53 and the scheme has 7W been included in successive Civil Aviation Votes since then.
Expenditure to date is approximately £235,000.
