Scottish Central Fire Brigades Advisory Council

HC Deb 21 July 1971 vol 821 cc295-6W

Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when was the last occasion on which a Scottish Office Minister attended a meeting of the Scottish Central Fire Brigades Advisory Council.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

In the past 10 years a Scottish Office Minister has attended a meeting of the Scottish Central Fire Brigades Advisory Council only once, on 10th November, 1967. My hon. Friend, the Under-Secretary of State for Home Affairs and Agriculture hopes to attend their next meeting, the date for which has not yet been fixed.
