HC Deb 12 November 1936 vol 317 c1044
60. Mr. MANDER

asked the Minister of Health the position with regard to the progress of town-planning with regard to Dovedale, both on the Staffordshire and Derbyshire sides of the river?

Sir K. WOOD

The Peak Joint Committee on the Derbyshire side, and the Leek Rural District Council on the Staffordshire side, are preparing their schemes, which will be submitted to me in due course.

Mr. MANDER

Can the right hon. Gentleman say he is satisfied that the Staffordshire and Derbyshire County Councils are effectively co-operating and that the Leek rural district council is showing the necessary energy in the matter, and will he make inquiries?

Sir K. WOOD

I will certainly make inquiries, but I am not aware of any difficulty at present.
