§ 10. Mr. Swinglerasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what was the total value of loan sanctions for private street works in the financial year 1963–64; what additional mileage of streets and roads will be made up by this expenditure; and what is his estimate of the mileage remaining to be made up and publicly adopted.
§ Mr. CorfieldLoan sanctions issued during the financial year 1963–64 totalled £2.3 million. It is estimated that this is the cost of making up about 100 miles of private streets. In addition, as much again may be financed without recourse to loan. The mileage of private streets remaining to be made up is probably of the order of 4,800 miles.
