asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will give details of the construction content of future major Government programmes in Scotland in similar fashion to the proposals recently outlined by the English Minister for Housing and Construction.

My officials are in close touch with the preparations for arrangements to provide further information to the construction industry about public sector construction programmes which were outlined in the reply given by my hon. Friend the Minister for Housing and Construction to the hon. Member for Melton (Mr. Latham) on 28th January; and I will consider to what extent it would be useful to identify the Scottish element in these programmes.—[Vol. 904, c. 201.]
