HC Deb 13 May 1969 vol 783 cc1199-200
10. Mr. Tudor Watkins

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether he will indicate the date when he is likely to give a decision following the public local inquiry at Brecon at the end of January last into an application for an order by the Usk River Authority to enter land in the Usk and Senni Valleys, Breconshire, for the construction of reservoirs.

Mr. George Thomas

The Usk River Authority's application for an Order under section 67 of the Water Resources Act 1963, sought power to enter on land in the Usk and Senni Valleys for the purpose of sinking bore holes and carrying out geological investigations of the sites. The inspector's report is being considered urgently and a decision will be given as soon as possible.
