HC Deb 13 May 1952 vol 500 c94W
69. Mr. Deer

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will take immediate steps, in association with the other Ministries concerned, to expedite the clearance of munitions from the Sherwood Forest areas, and restore the social amenities of this natural beauty spot.

Mr. Head

I am anxious that the clearance of this ammunition should be carried out as quickly as possible and the programme has recently been discussed with the authorities of the borough of Worksop. A plan was agreed and the area to be cleared by the first of this month was completed by that date.
