HC Deb 10 December 1962 vol 669 c1W
9. Mr. Wilkins

asked the Minister of Power what objections he has received from organisations and individuals, respectively, to the proposal of the Central Electricity Generating Board to carry a new 275,000 volts cable on pylons through the built-up area of Brislington, Bristol, instead of conveying it underground; and whether, in order that the objectors may be heard, he will arrange for a public inquiry to be held.

Mr. Wood
