§ 98. Brigadier Raynerasked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware of the necessity of the appropriate highway authority to spend £5,000 on the repair of the cliff road at Salcombe in South Devon following a recent landslide in that road attributable to the detonation of mines in the harbour; what amount of assistance can be given towards this expenditure by his Department; and whether any steps will be taken in the special circumstances to make more money available for the purpose.
