§ Mr. Robin F. Cookasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether his office has been involved in discussions concerning the proposal by SMT to take over the transport fleet of Edinburgh Corporation following regionalisation; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. William RossI am informed that the Scottish Transport Group has not made any proposal for a take-over of Edinburgh Corporation's transport undertaking, and the question of involvement by my Department does not, therefore, arise.
