HC Deb 13 March 1934 vol 287 cc196-7
57. Mr. MANDER

asked the Minister of Health if he will state generally the present position with regard to the proposed motor racing track on the South Downs?

Sir H. YOUNG

I understand that permission for the construction of the proposed motor racing track has been refused by the Portslade Urban District Council under the Town and Country Planning Act, 1932, and the interim development order in force. As the hon. Member is no doubt aware a private Bill has been deposited which has among its objects the preservation of the South Downs.
