HC Deb 24 March 1953 vol 513 c72W
77. Lord Malcolm Douglas-Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how soon he will be in a position to state when any re-organisation in West Coast of Scotland steamer or cargo services is to be made.

Mr. J. Stuart

Proposals for the reorganisation of the West Highland cargo services maintained by Messrs. David MacBrayne, Ltd., are at present being considered by the Advisory Panel on the Highlands and Islands, and I am not yet in a position to say when any re-organisation of the services will take place.
