HC Deb 12 July 1972 vol 840 cc337-8W
28. Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he hopes to introduce legislation on the Hunter Committee Report and White Paper.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

Since the White Paper was published last November consultations have been proceeding with all concerned. As a result, we expect to have legislation ready when the parliamentary programme provides an opportunity for it.
