§ 95. Mr. Ashtonasked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he will order a public inquiry into the decision by the Central Electricity Generating Board to erect a further overhead 151W supply line and pylons from West Burton power station over the village of Bole, near Retford, in view of the effect on the environment and television reception.
§ Mr. EmeryI have received no application from the board to erect further overhead lines in the vicinity of the West Burton power station. However if an application were made the question of a public inquiry would depend on the nature and volume of objections.
