§ Mr. Johnstonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he is now in a position to make any statement as to the possibilities of providing assistance to enable the Scottish National Dictionary to be completed, whether on the lines of the subvention given to the English Oxford Dictionary or otherwise?
§ Lieut.-Colonel Colville:I regret that I am not aware of any source from which financial assistance might be obtained to enable the dictionary to be completed. I understand that no subvention is given to the English Oxford Dictionary from Government money.
