Recent appearances

• Oral Answers to Questions — Scotland: Housing 31 Jul 1951

  Can my right hon. Friend indicate what proportion of this year's programme for Scottish building consists of three-apartment houses?

• Oral Answers to Questions — Scotland: Development Schemes, Shetland 31 Jul 1951

  Will my right hon. Friend bear in mind that there is a very valuable fishing fleet in this area which, with a new type of boat, has not adequate safe harbour facilities, and that a causeway of 500 feet from Trondra to the other side would provide such a safe harbour? Will he give urgent attention to this matter in view of the possibility of unemployment in the area?

• Orders of the Day — Transport 31 Jul 1951

  That is very important. Will the hon. Gentleman give the date to which he is referring—the date after the railways were nationalised? Is he not confusing this with the period before nationalisation?
