HC Deb 11 February 1983 vol 36 c478W
Mr. Robert Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what was the cost to the North of Scotland hydro-electric board of the report by management consultants Arthur Young McClelland Moores; if the contract was awarded after competitive tender; and, if not, what estimates were received before the contract was awarded.

Mr. Alexander Fletcher

The management consultants were commissioned by the North of Scotland hydro-electric board following discussion with the Scottish office. The contractural arrangements governing their appointment were, however, a matter for the board and I am therefore asking the chairman to wite to the hon. Member.
