§ Mr. McMasterTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland when he next plans to meet Endell Laird, the editor in chief of theScottish Daily Record and Sunday Mail to discuss the provisions of a Scottish children's hospice; what is his policy on such a meeting; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Stewart[holding answer 29 April 1994]: My right hon. Friend welcomes the support which the Daily Record has provided for the establishment of a children's hospice in Scotland, but has no plans at present to discuss this with Mr. Laird. I understand that the plans of the Children's Hospice Association Scotland for the establishment of a hospice serving the whole of Scotland are well advanced.
