HC Deb 15 March 1977 vol 928 c167W
Mr. Watt

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will advise district councils to employ a forester wherever appropriate and use job creation schemes to get the derelict areas in their possession planted with trees of marketable varieties.

Mr. Gregor MacKenzie

I am sure that local authorities are fully aware of the availability of the job creation scheme, and how they make use of it is a matter for them to decide in the light of their individual requirements.
