HC Deb 11 April 1963 vol 675 c209W
Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many of those in the development unit of his office have experience in trade or industry.

Mr. Noble

There is no such unit. If the right hon. Gentleman is referring to the Scottish Development Group, this is composed of officials from all the Departments concerned with economic and physical development in Scotland; it has access to trade and industrial experience through the established contacts of these Departments with organisations in trade and industry.
