§ Mr. Dalyellasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is his policy towards the improvement of the environment of railway sidings in Scotland.
§ Mr. Gordon CampbellWhere disused railway sidings have become derelict, neglected or unsightly, Government assistance is available to local authorities towards their rehabilitation, and I am always ready to consider any such proposals. Approved schemes would normally attract grant at 85 per cent. of the net cost.
