§ Mr. Corrieasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many hectares of derelict land there were in Scotland at the latest available date; and how much of that is in the parliamentary constituency of Cunninghame, North.
§ Mr. YoungerInformation is not held centrally on the amount of derelict land in Scotland. My Department is, however, at present conducting an exercise jointly with local authorities to assess what information is available on vacant, derelict and underused land in urban areas and to consider how the disposal of such land held by public bodies might be facilitated. This exercise covers land in the parliamentary constituency of Cunninghame, North.
