§ Mr. Home Robertsonasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will seek support from the European Community Commission under regulation 2744/80 for water and sewerage projects in Scotland; and why no moves for support have so far been made.
§ Mr. YoungerThe Government's decision not to seek support under the supplementary measures scheme for 183W local authority expenditure programmes such as water and sewerage services in Scotland reflects their view that the administrative work associated with the scheme should be kept to a minimum and fall on as few spending authorities as possible.
