HC Deb 18 May 1965 vol 712 c211W
Mr. Russell Johnston

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether, in reviewing the road programme for Scotland in July, he will give attention to the problem of township roads in the seven crofting counties.

Mr. Ross

Grants for the improvement of township roads are made under the Congested Districts (Scotland) Act, 1897, and are considered separately from the motorway, trunk and classified road programmes. The problem of township roads is important and I can assure the hon. Member that I have it very much in mind.
