§ Mr. Michael Forsythasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement regarding the Killearn hospital site.
§ Mr. John MacKayMissives for the sale of the site were concluded in July 1985. An application by the purchasers for a change of use to an equestrian centre with associated facilities was approved by Stirling district council in October 1985 subject to various conditions and the requirement that an agreement under section 50 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1972 be successfully negotiated between the local authority and the developer prior to planning consent being issued. These negotiations are not yet complete and accordingly the sale has not yet been concluded.
