HC Deb 01 June 1981 vol 5 cc287-8W
Mr. Henderson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he will publish a consultative document on the implementation in Scotland of part II of the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979; and when parts I and III of the Act will be brought into operation.

Mr. Rifkind

The consultative document on the implementation of part II will be issued before the end of the month. My right hon. Friend hopes to bring parts I and III of the Act into operation in Scotland later this year.
