Mr. Ernie Ross
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he collects information centrally concerning local government elections and by-elections in Scotland, covering details of candidates and results; and, if not, if he will arrange for such details to be collected.
Mr. Rifkind
This information is not collected centrally, nor is it proposed to do so in future. Much information on these lines is, however, published from time to time by the department of political science at Dundee university.
