HC Deb 11 May 1965 vol 712 cc46-7W
80. Sir M. Galpern

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland, in view of the incompleteness of the voters' roll in Ayr resulting in substantial omissions of voters' names whereby ratepayers who for years had voted regularly were prevented from doing so at the recent municipal election, if he will hold an inquiry into the reasons for the inaccuracies in the preparation of the electoral roll.

Mr. Ross

No. I have no statutory power to take such action as suggested.
