HC Deb 21 March 1979 vol 964 c646W
60. Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if, in view of the disruption and pollution already caused by oil in Orkney and Shetland, he will introduce legislation to forbid the mining of uranium in the islands.

Mr. Millan

The issue of uranium mining will be coming before me shortly as part of my consideration of the Orkney structure plan.
