§ Mr. David Marshallasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what date he estimates that work will start on bringing up to motorway standards all the remaining stretches of the A74 between Glasgow and Carlisle; and by what date he estimates that this work will be completed.
§ Lord James Douglas-HamiltonThe timetable for upgrading of the A74 to motorway will depend on the outcome of feasibility studies that are under way, and on the time taken to complete any necessary statutory procedures.
