HC Deb 26 July 1967 vol 751 cc139-40W
65. Earl of Dalkeith

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what consultations he has held with local authorities concerning the desirability of broadening the scope of their family planning arrangements with appropriate legislation on the lines of the Bill before Parliament in respect of England and Wales.

Mr. Ross

None The Bill which received the Royal Assent last month was a Private Member's Bill; and as has already been made clear in another place, I would look sympathetically on any similar Private Members' Bill suitably adapted to Scottish circumstances.
