HC Deb 26 June 1973 vol 858 cc322-3W
Mr. Grimond

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will request the Oil Council to consider the effect of the discovery of oil on wages, housing and education in Shetland and to make recommendations.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

I regard it as a matter for the Oil Development Council for Scotland to determine what areas to consider first, but I shall be drawing these matters, with others, to the attention of the council, whose first meeting takes place this week.
