§ Mr. GarrettTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment when planning consent was granted by him for a second district hospital at Colney in South Norfolk district; when that permission expired; and if a new planning application will need to be referred to him. [15641]
§ Sir Paul BeresfordPlanning approval for a second district hospital at Colney in South Norfolk district was granted on 5 December 1988 and expired in December 1993. There are no proposals currently in front of the council, but as the adopted local plan makes provision for such a development, it is unlikely that any new planning application would need to be referred to my right hon. Friend.
