HC Deb 31 January 1961 vol 633 c103W
74. Mr. W. Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland why he has refused permission to the Fife County Council Direct Labour Department to build the Torbain infant school in Fife, in view of its experience in this type of contract and the speed, efficiency and quality of its work.

Mr. Maclay

Competitive tenders were publicly invited for this project and there appeared to be no good reason why the lowest offer should not be accepted.
