HC Deb 21 March 1950 vol 472 cc99-100W
40. Colonel Stoddart-Scott

asked the Minister of Town and Country Planning if he will use his powers under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act, 1949, to repair the two footbridges in the Washburn Valley which are in dangerous condition and are of great use to the local inhabitants and ramblers.

Mr. Lindgren

Responsibility in this matter rests with the local highway authority to whom any representations should be made. My right hon. Friend has no jurisdiction in the matter.
