§ 67. Mr. Garro Jonesasked the Minister of Transport whether he has had before him the two estimates for the construction of the Allanvale bridge over the River Dee; whether he is aware that one tender, which has not been accepted, is £27,000 less than a tender which it has been proposed to accept; and whether he will take steps to satisfy himself, before giving his sanction to the scheme, that the best tender will be accepted?
§ Mr. BurginIn circumstances which are unusual the town council has asked for my advice, and the matter is now being investigated by my technical officers.
§ Mr. Garro JonesMay I have an answer to the last part of the question?
§ Mr. BurginAs the whole matter has been submitted to me for advice and the request was received on 12th July, I cannot add to the answer for the moment.
