Stirling Castle 91. Colonel J. R. H. Hutchison asked the Minister of Works what steps he proposes to take for the restoration or protection of the Hall of Parliament at Stirling Castle. Mr. Key My Department has always had in mind, as a long-term policy, the desirability of restoring the historical buildings in Stirling Castle. A considerable amount of exploratory work will be necessary, however, before any decision can be reached about the Hall of Parliament, which is at present in military occupation.
