HC Deb 19 February 1930 vol 235 c1414W
Sir A. KNOX

asked the Minister of Transport whether representations have been mad (c) to him regarding the unnecessary destruction of trees between Slough and Maidenhead during the widening of the Bath road now in progress; and what steps does he propose to take in the matter?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

No representations have been made to me; but I understand that the trees which were felled were considered to be dangerous as a result of sewerage operations carried out by the local authorities. The county council will consider the planting of trees along this section of the road in connection with the widening works which are now in progress.
