§ Mr. WrayTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland how much of the Government spending programme on roads and bridge maintenance will be allocated to Scotland; and which major Scottish roads and bridges will benefit.
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonMy right hon. and learned Friend will announce in December his decision on the allocation of funds to the transport programme. Fuller details will be published early next year in "Public Expenditure to 1990–91: A commentary on the Scotland Programme". Spending on maintenance is allocated to individual roads and bridges according to need as established by regular inspections.
