Grant Committee (Recommendations)

HC Deb 05 December 1968 vol 774 cc554-5W

Mrs. Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what recommendations of the Grant Committee have not yet been put into effect.

Mr. Ross

The Committee's recommendations are being followed on a number of matters which can be dealt with by administrative action. The implementation of the more important recommendations will involve legislation which will have to be fitted into the Parliamentary programme.
