HC Deb 28 March 1961 vol 637 cc107-8W
35. Mr. W. Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland why he refused permission to Mr. Stahly, of Glencraig, Fife, to establish a petrol filling station in the village, although the commission of inquiry recommended that the proposal be accepted.

Mr. Maclay

I upheld the decision of the county council in this case as being in accord with their Central and West Fife Development Plan, which provides specifically for the relocation of the community and the ultimate clearance of North and South Glencraig, and in the interests of road safety.
