HC Deb 08 December 1966 vol 737 c366W
118. Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what proposals are being considered for the future of Glenafton Hospital.

Mr. Ross

I am considering whether the hospital should be closed permanently, continued in use for a limited period, or continued in use indefinitely.

119. Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what steps are being taken for the protection and for preventing the deterioration of the buildings at Glenafton pending a decision on the future of the hospital.

Mr. Ross

The Board of Management has engaged a security company to provide a 24-hour watch. No special measures to prevent deterioration of the buildings are thought necessary at present but they will be inspected regularly.
