§ Mr. Hordernasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will give an estimate of the size of the population of Crawley in the years 1970, 1975 and 1980, or any years convenient to his calculations, made in the course of his review of the South-East.
§ Mr. MacCollThe town map submitted by West Sussex County Council estimates that the population will reach 70,000 by 1981. This implies that it would reach about 62,000 by 1970 and about 65,000 by 1975. The population has already almost reached 60,000 and the Departments' officials will shortly be discussing with the local authorities how far their estimates need to be revised.
