asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what improvements have been made by and with assistance from the Department of Agriculture for Scotland at Luskentyre, Isle of Harris, in the matter of providing the smallholders access to the sea-weed manure necessary for improving their sandy soil?

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on 16th May last. The offer of a contribution of £200 to assist the holders to construct a cart access for the purpose of securing sea ware still remains open.
