24. Air Commodore Harveyasked the Minister of Town and Country Planning if he will make a statement on the results 13 of the boring tests with regard to the proposed new town near Congleton.
§ Mr. DaltonSix borings have been made. These and earlier borings show that there is rock salt to the south of Congleton, but not to the north.
Air Commodore HarveyIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that these boring tests have taken place for nearly two years and, in view of the situation, would it not be better to drop these tests and give the people of Congleton the additional houses they so badly require?
§ Mr. DaltonThere will not be any more tests. I am satisfied with those we have had.
