HC Deb 18 July 1927 vol 209 cc40-1W
Sir A. SINCLAIR

asked the Minister of Transport what is the estimated expenditure out of the Road Fund upon Scottish Roads for the current year?

Colonel ASHLEY

I am unable to state the amount which will be actually spent in the year, but it is estimated that the allocation to Scottish authorities, out of the revenues of the Road Fund available for distribution in grants during the current year, will amount to £2,110,000. This sum does not include any payments towards expenditure incurred on works still in hand, towards which grants have been made in previous years.
