HC Deb 30 November 1965 vol 721 c164W
69. Mr. Allason

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what is his policy on the preservation of trees in urban squares in relation to the requirements of underground car-parks.

Mr. Crossman

I am bound to consider every proposal on its merits. But my general policy, where such a car park is acceptable on other grounds, is to ensure that the trees and appearance of the site are preserved as far as possible.
