§ Mr. Brewisasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many accidents have been notified to his Department as occurring on the A.75 route within one mile of Twynholm village; how many resulted in fatal and non-fatal injuries, respectively; and when he expects to authorise a bypass round this village.
§ Mr. NobleIn the four years 1960–63, nine accidents involving injury were reported. There was one fatality (1960) and eight cases of slight injury. An Order fixing the line of a by-pass was made in 1952 but I cannot say when its construction is likely to be authorised.
