HC Deb 14 July 1983 vol 45 c434W
Mr. Martin

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will take steps to improve the Forth and Clyde canal with a view to its use for recreational purposes.

Mr. Ancram

The Countryside Commission for Scotland has the national responsibility for the provision of public recreation in the countryside. The commission has already aided projects on the Forth and Clyde canal and has others under construction.
