§ Mr. Gordon Wilsonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what mileage of motorway is under construction in Scotland; and what starts will be made on motorway projects in each year to 1980 with the respective mileage being quoted in each such year.
§ Mr. William RossThirteen miles of motorway are under construction, and tenders have been received for a further scheme of 2.4 miles. In view of the need to control public expenditure the programme is being kept under review. It is, therefore, not possible to allocate starting dates to particular motorway schemes at present.
