§ 53. Mr. RoweTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many representations he has received on the planning implications of the proposal to site a motorway service area at Hollingbourne on the M20.
§ Mr. WaldegraveThe Department of Transport's and Esso Petroleum Company Limited's proposals to 603W construct a motorway service area on the same site on the M20 at Hollingbourne were considered at a public local inquiry held last month. Fifty two representations on the proposals were received by Maidstone borough council and an additional three by the Department. Others may have been made at the inquiry, but until the inspector's report is received I am unable to say how many representations were made on planning grounds.
