HC Deb 15 July 1947 vol 440 c36W
98. Mr. Willis

asked the Minister of Works which Government offices it is proposed to accommodate at the temporary offices being erected at Sighthill, Edinburgh, and where these offices are at present located.

Mr. Durbin

The temporary office building now being erected at Sighthill, Edinburgh, is unlikely to be ready for occupation before the beginning of next year and I am not yet in a position to say which particular staffs will be accommodated in the new building. It is intended to vacate buildings high in the order of priority for release, such as dwelling houses, hotels, educational and business premises.
