asked the Secretary of State for Defence if, pursuant to the reply to the hon. Member for Fife, East on 28 February, Official Report, c. 58, he is now able to make an announcement regarding the introduction of a scheme to pay grants for sound insulation of dwellings arising from the use of the Royal Air Force base at Leuchars.

Mr. Wiggin

I am pleased to announce the introduction of a scheme to pay grants for sound insulation of dwellings near RAF Leuchars. The scheme will include Leuchars village and two housing estates at Guardbridge. It will be administered by the Property Services Agency on behalf of the Ministry of Defence. Arrangements are being made for the scheme to be advertised in the locality.
