HC Deb 15 November 1949 vol 469 c1848
33. Mr. Watkins

asked the Minister of Town and Country Planning if he will give the reason for the delay in announcing the result of the local public inquiry into the Service land requirements at Castell Martin, Pembrokeshire, held over 12 months ago; and when his decision will be made known.

Mr. Silkin

I regret the delay, but I hope to announce a decision in the very near future.

Mr. Watkins

May we have an assurance from the Minister that his decision will be expedited, because of what happened in Pembrokeshire, and because nearly all this land is in proposed national park areas?

Mr. Silkin

I will certainly do my best to give a very speedy decision.
