HC Deb 03 April 1930 vol 237 c1482W
Mr. DAY

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether there are any county local authorities in Scotland that have as yet not framed schemes under the Housing (Rural Workers) Act; and what action is being taken by the Government with these authorities to bring to their notice the advantages of the Act?

Mr. W. ADAMSON

As at 31st March, 18 landward local authorities in Scotland had not had schemes approved under the Housing (Rural Workers) Act though some of them still had the matter under consideration. As regards the latter part of the question I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply on this subject given on 25th March to the hon. and gallant Member for Caithness and Sutherland (Sir A. Sinclair).
