§ Lord James Douglas-Hamiltonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish a table indicating the extent to which rates are increasing: (a) in every region in Scotland, and (b) in every district in Scotland; and if he will give percentages in each case.
§ Mr. MillanI do not yet have sufficient information to provide a comparison of rates payable in each region and district in 1978–79 with earlier years. I will write to the hon. Member when this is available.
