HC Deb 25 October 1950 vol 478 c363W
102. Mr. Perkins

asked the Secretary of State for Air when a decision regarding the lease of land for the Adcock radio range at Severn Beach, Bristol, can be expected; and whether he will take all possible steps to expedite it in view of the hardship being caused to the owners of the land concerned.

Mr. A. Henderson

A decision about the lease of this land has now been reached and draft agreements have been sent to the solicitors acting for the owners concerned. I very much regret the delay that has occurred and assure the hon. Member that everything possible will be done to ensure the early completion of the legal formalities.
