HC Deb 30 October 1987 vol 121 c494W
Mrs. Ray Michie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what representations he has received in respect of the future of Rothesay castle; and if he will make a statement.

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

The Scottish Development Department has received three representations from one person over the past two years about the condition of Rothesay castle. Work has recently been carried out to deal with water penetration in the great hall, and it is hoped that the consequent improvement in conditions will pave the way for improvements in visitor facilities as circumstances permit.
