HC Deb 06 February 1962 vol 653 c39W
74. Mr. Callaghan

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what representations he has received from residents in St. Augustine's Road and St. John Street, Penarth, about the subsidence caused by land excavation for new housing; and if he will revoke planning permission so as to suspend further work on this site until danger of subsidence has been overcome by the planning authorities.

Dr. Hill

I have received a copy of a petition sent by residents of St. Augustine's Road and St. John Street, Penarth, to the Penarth Urban District Council. The council are looking into the complaints. I am in touch with them and I shall write to the hon. Member as soon as I have further information.
