HC Deb 18 February 1932 vol 261 cc1825-6
82. Major OWEN

asked the Minister of Agriculture what is the present position with regard to the reopening of the Cilgwyn and Moeltrytan quarries, in the county of Carnarvon?

Sir J. GILMOUR

Negotiations have been nearly completed, which it is anticipated, will result in work at the quarries being started at an early date.

Major OWEN

Is it not the case that that has been the reply of his Department for the last 12 months? Is it not possible for the right hon. Gentleman to get something done in this matter

Sir J. GILMOUR

I have made inquiries into this matter, and I am satisfied that work will be resumed shortly.
