Mr. Edward M. Taylorasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many lochside mansions and lodges are now under the management and control of the Lower Clyde Water Board; what is the annual cost of maintaining them; for what purpose they are used; and if he will take steps to ensure that they are used for the general benefit of the community.
§ Mr. RossI understand that four such properties have been taken over from Glasgow Corporation by the Board, which is now responsible for deciding what can best be done with them. Any questions about maintenance costs and the purposes for which the houses are used should be addressed to the Board.
