HC Deb 01 November 1965 vol 718 cc119-20W
Mr. Heffer

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what representations he has made to the Spanish Government in connection with the danger to British tourists at Pineda del Mar, Costa Brava, Spain, and in particular in connection with the case of Kevin Cassidy, a British subject, the full details of which have been sent to him by the hon. Member for Liverpool, Walton.

Mr. M. Stewart

Her Majesty's Consul-General at Barcelona has twice taken up with the Civil Governor of Barcelona Province the matter of the danger caused to tourists by the coastal railway line which is unfenced and which has been the scene of several accidents to British subjects including Mr. Kevin Cassidy. The Civil Governor replied that he had asked the local authorities to take measures to prevent such accidents as far as possible by putting up signs and building an underpass.
