HC Deb 17 December 1980 vol 996 c170W
Mr. John Home Robertson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement on the progress of the request from Lothian health board and Lothian regional council for consent to proceed with construction of the day centre for disabled people at Prestonpans.

Mr. Fairgrieve

I am not persuaded that this project meets the criteria for the provision of support finance by the health board to the regional council. I have not been approached by the regional council for consent to incur liability to meet capital expenses on this project.
