HC Deb 24 October 1956 vol 558 cc40-1W
72. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation what representations he has received from Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council about the Clayton road, Newcastle-under-Lyme; and what reply he has made to these representations.

Mr. Watkinson

The council has asked me to make grants for widening two lengths of this road and to meet its representatives to discuss the matter. I have regretfully had to reply that the demands of more urgent schemes preclude me from making these grants at present.
