HC Deb 18 June 1958 vol 589 c93W
Mr. Body

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what consultations took place with his Department or with the Essex Agricultural Executive Committee and the Brentwood Urban District Council about their proposal to use nearly 40 acres of agricultural land at South Weald, Brentwood, as a rubbish dump for neighbouring local authorities.

Mr. John Hare

My Department was consulted by the local planning authority in October, 1957, about an application by the Brentwood Urban District Council for planning permission for the use of a site of some 37 acres in this area for the controlled tipping of refuse.
