§ 62. Sir B. Jannerasked the Minister of Transport if he will list the administrative procedures which have to be followed between the decision to build a new motorway and an all-purpose road, respectively, and the contractor beginning work on site, giving the minimum time it is possible to take for each stage including, where applicable, undertaking a number of stages simultaneously.
§ Mr. Tom FraserThese procedures are described in paragraphs 172 to 182 of the Report on "Roads in England and Wales" for the year ended 31st March, 1964 presented to Parliament by my predecessor.
The time taken for these procedures depends upon the size and complexity of the scheme and the number and nature of objections to it.
