HC Deb 29 July 1936 vol 315 c1519
39. Miss WILKINSON

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is now in a position to make his promised statement as to whether he is prepared to pay compensation in net cash, instead of site value, for the proposed Felling-Gateshead by-pass road?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

The statement which I promised on 27th April was made on 6th May, 1936. Further I informed the Gateshead Corporation on 20th May that I was prepared to consider an application for a grant towards the net cost of constructing a by-pass but the corporation has made no application to me.
