HC Deb 07 February 1967 vol 740 c267W
67. Mr. Tinn

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will take steps to secure the satisfactory completion of the Teesside Survey and Plan financed by his Department and local authorities, in view of the threatened dismissal of Mr. Franklin Medhurst the director; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Greenwood

Two firms of consultants, Messrs. Wilson and Womersley and Messrs. Scott and Wilson, Kirkpatrick and Partners, were jointly commissioned for the Teesside Survey and Plan. I have no reason to believe that these firms will not satisfactorily complete the project for which they are responsible. I understand that the Steering Committee is to meet to consider the situation on 10th February.
