HC Deb 23 June 1959 vol 607 c126W
91. Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will specify the further information which he asked for to enable him to reach a decision on the Aberdeen development plan, if he has yet received it; and if he has reached a decision on this plan.

Mr. Maclay

In approving the development plan over a year ago, a controversial proposal for part of an inner ring road was deleted. The Corporation had been told that, for further consideration of this proposal, it would need to prepare large scale plans and this I understand it hopes shortly to do. Reinstatement of the proposal in the development plan would require the promotion of a formal amendment, subject to objection and inquiry in the usual way.
