HC Deb 23 June 1938 vol 337 c1284W
Major Braithwaite

asked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been drawn to the proposal to build bungalows, hotels and other buildings on the front of Flamborough Head; and whether he will take steps to see that the amenities of this beauty spot are not spoiled and that the general public will retain access to and from the cliffs and foreshore?

Mr. Ridley

asked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been drawn to the proposal to develop Flamborough Head for building purposes; what representations he has received from local authorities and other interested bodies or persons; and what action he proposes to take in connection with the matter?

Mr. Elliot

I am aware of this proposal through references in the Press. I have been in touch with the local authorities within whose jurisdiction the matter comes, and I understand that a special meeting will be held very shortly to consider the question. I shall continue to keep in close touch with the local authorities.
