§ Mr. Dodds-Parkerasked the Secretary of State for Air whether he is aware that general alarm is felt at the proposal to utilise the bird sanctuary in the Severn 96W Estuary known as the Severn Wildfowl Trust as a practice bombing range; that this sanctuary affords great research and recreational facilities and that if it were interfered with many rare types of birds would disappear; and whether these factors will be taken into consideration before a final decision is reached.
§ Mr. A. HendersonI am not yet able to add anything to the answer I gave to the hon. and gallant Member for Lewes (Major Beamish) on 22nd June.
