§ 69. Mr. Bossomasked the Minister of Health whether he is yet ready to make a statement concerning the preservation of Edale?
§ Mr. ElliotI am not yet in a position to add anything to my previous statements on this subject.
§ Mr. BossomWhen will my right hon. Friend be able to do this, and will he give an assurance that no work will be undertaken until the matter has been straightened out?
§ Mr. ElliotYes, Sir. I said on the last occasion that work had been stopped and that no further work was proceeding. I am unable to say when I shall be able to make a further statement in the matter. The firm is engaged in determining upon an alternative site, and until that examination has been concluded I shall not be able to make a statement.
