§ Mr. Douglasasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will give estimates of the proportion of total expenditure to mitigate problems of the contraction of the coal industry which will be spent in Scotland in the years 1971 to 1975.
§ Mr. RidleyI expect that Scotland will account for about one-tenth of the total expenditure until 1973–74, the period covered by the powers of the Coal Industry Bill.
