HC Deb 31 March 1971 vol 814 c388W
Mr. David Clark

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many proposals he has received for the establishment of country parks in the West Riding; how many of these have been established; and what are the comparable figures for the Colne Valley constituency.

Mr. Michael Heseltine

Five applications for grant under the Countryside Act, 1968, for the establishment of country parks in the West Riding have so far been received by the Countryside Commission. One of these, at Worsborough Mill, is now in process of being established. No applications have yet been received in respect of country parks in the Colne Valley constituency.
