§ Mr. E. Rowlandsasked the Secretary of State for Wales whether he is aware of the proposal to develop the Wentloog Flats, Cardiff, for residential purposes; and, in view of the size and importance of this site and its possibilities for industral purposes, if he will call for the planning application to be referred to him for adjudication.
§ Mr. Cledwyn HughesI am aware of this proposal but I understand that no decision will be taken by the Cardiff City Council until they have considered a report on the area by their Planning Officer. If the Council wish to permit the development I should expect the proposal to be referred to me as involving a substantial departure from the Development Plan or affecting the whole of a neighbourhood.
