HC Deb 11 November 1965 vol 720 cc5-6W
Mr. Anthony Royle

(Richmond, Surrey), asked the Minister of Transport, when the statutory procedures will be completed for the line of the M.4 motorway.

Mr. Tom Fraser

I am anxious that they should be completed as soon as possible and I hope to publish all the remaining draft Schemes by mid-1966. I cannot forecast the rate of progress thereafter, which will depend on the number and weight of objections, but the procedures cannot normally be completed in less than two years from publication of the draft Scheme.
