§ Mr. Bruce-Gardyneasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what was the percentage increase in new building work, other than housing, for private developers in Scotland between 1964 and 1966; and what is his forecast of the increase to be expected between 1966 and 1968.
§ Mr. PrenticeI have been asked to reply.
The percentage increase, at constant prices, between 1964 and 1966 was 24 per cent. I cannot give a forecast for the years 1966 to 1968.
