HC Deb 28 October 1975 vol 898 c407W
Mr. Ovenden

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to approve the North West Kent town map; and what are the reasons which have delayed his decision on this matter.

Mr. Oakes

Subject to consultations with the local planning authority, my right hon. Friend will be announcing his proposed modifications very shortly. The delay is regretted; this is a complex map and it has been necessary to give priority to other development plan submissions in Kent.
