Mr. Teddy Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will consider the introduction of an interim relief scheme for ratepayers along the lines of the scheme announced in respect of last year by the Secretary of State for the Environment on 22nd July 1974; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. William Ross

The 1974–75 scheme covered Scotland as well as England and Wales. I have no plans to reintroduce it for the current year.
