§ 19. Mr. Mott-Radclyffeasked the Minister of Town and Country Planning whether he has yet considered the evidence submitted on 23rd February at the public inquiry regarding the new town at Bracknell; and how soon he will publish his decision thereon.
§ Mr. SilkinI am considering the Report of my Inspector, and I shall publish my decision as soon as possible.
§ Mr. Mott-RadclyffeIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the continued delay and uncertainty places farmers in the area in question in an almost impossible position, and that this uncertainty can only have an adverse effect on food production in the current year?
§ Mr. SilkinI am sure the hon. Gentleman would wish me to consider carefully the evidence given at the inquiry held on 23rd February, and would not wish to rush me into a decision.
