HC Deb 20 December 1974 vol 883 c714W
Mr. Sillars

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many Scottish local authorities provide or help to provide cheap holidays for elderly or disabled people; and how many provide special holiday accommodation for these groups.

Mr. William Ross

45 local authorities assisted in the provision of holidays in 1973, but I do not have information that would show how many of those assisted were elderly or disabled. Four authorities provide holiday homes mainly for elderly or disabled people.
