Mr. Russell Johnston
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he proposes to take any further action towards implementing a road equivalent tariff to the Scottish Islands.
Mr. Rifkind
I confirm my right hon. Friend's commitment to move towards road equivalent tariff. The further increases in subsidy for Scottish shipping services for 1982–83, announced on 12 February, reflect this commitment.—[Vol. 17, c. 480.]
