§ 20. Mr. DouglasTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a statement with regard to the issues which he expects to raise at the next meeting between himself and the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities.
§ Mr. LangMy right hon. and learned Friend and I met representatives of the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities on Monday 3 July, when they let us have their views on the revenue support grant settlement for 1990–91 and other related matters.
I hope to meet the convention again in the autumn to discuss grant distribution, and such other matters as may by then be appropriate.
