§ 49. Mr. Sorensenasked the Minister of Transport in view of Her Majesty's Government's decision to restrict public expenditure, whether the plans for the Eastern Avenue extension through the Borough of Leyton are to be suspended; and approximately for what further period house owners and tenants on the line of the projected extension can now expect to continue their occupancy.
§ Mr. MarplesNo. The present restrictions on public expenditure will not affect the decision I hope to announce shortly about the Eastern Avenue extension. Several years' notice will be given to owners and tenants whose houses are required for road building purposes.
