HC Deb 18 December 1947 vol 445 c403W
Mr. Philips Price

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is aware that delays of over 18 months have occurred in the sale and transfer of an industrial site at Hally Hill Wood, Cinderford, in the Forest of Dean; and will he look into the machinery for the transfer of land for industrial sites at the Forestry Commission, with a view to speeding up transactions of this nature.

Mr. T. Williams

I am aware of the delay in this matter, which is not entirely due to the action of the Forestry Commission. Everything possible is done to deal with these matters expeditiously, and in the cases now in question both applicants were given prior entry to the sites.
