HC Deb 25 November 1970 vol 807 cc125-6W
88. Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he proposes to bring forward proposals to provide compensation to owners and occupiers of houses adversely affected by the construction of major roads.

Mr. Graham Page

My right hon. Friend is reviewing the compensation law, which has implications for other public development as well as roads. It is too early to say what changes may be needed.
