HC Deb 28 February 2002 vol 380 c1518W
Chris Grayling

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions what discussions he has had with the Scottish Executive about road maintenance contracts. [39136]

Mr. Jamieson

Road maintenance contracts in Scotland are a matter for the Scottish Executive.

DTLR officials regularly meet Scottish Executive officials in the fora of the Roads Liaison Group and its associated boards, which were set up last year to bring together representatives of all highway authorities in the UK to discuss and advise on issues relating to the construction and maintenance of highways.
