HC Deb 23 May 1979 vol 967 cc152-3W
Mr. Gregor MacKenzie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will have an inspection made of the licensed rubbish tips in the Mount Vernon and Carmyle districts of Rutherglen with a view to the prevention of the dumping of noxious waste.

Mr. Rifkind

No. The inspection of rubbish tips is the responsibility of the licensing authority, in this case the city of Glasgow district council. Should I receive an appeal against the conditions imposed on the operation of these tips I would consider it on its merits.
