HC Deb 26 July 1968 vol 769 c276W
Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what progress has been made on the Trondra-Burra Isle Scheme; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Ross

Zetland County Council has decided on revised proposals providing for the new road to cross Lang Sound by a low-level bridge, instead of a high-level bridge as originally planned. The Council's application for the necessary navigational consent is now being considered by my right hon. Friend the President of the Board of Trade.
