§ Mr. Sproatasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what evidence has been drawn to his attention of hauliers, carrying food and other supplies to Arran and other Scottish islands, making financial contributions of £26 or other sums to pickets before being permitted to pass the pickets.
Mr. Milan:I have seen press reports about these matters but I understand that no complaint has been made or evidence submitted to the police or the procurator fiscal, who are the proper authorities to deal with any alleged breach of the law.
