HC Deb 25 February 1969 vol 778 cc268-9W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what consideration he has given to the proposals submitted to him by Airdrie Town Council to build a new old folks home in Airdrie; and if he will give details of site, estimated cost and a possible starting date for the project.

Mr. Ross

Plans have been examined. The site is at Forrest Street, Airdrie, and the present estimated cost £126,760. I cannot yet say when consent to borrow funds for this project will be given.
