HC Deb 18 May 1966 vol 728 cc253-4W
71. Mr. Arthur Pearson

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what stage has been reached in the preparation of the scheme of flood prevention for the River Taff where it passes through the Treforest Industrial Estate; and if work will commence on the scheme during the coming summer months.

Mr. John Mackie

Further details are awaited from the Glamorgan River Authority of its proposals now estimated to cost about £240,000 for the protection of this industrial estate. When these are available a decision on the question of grant will be given as quickly as possible but it is too early to say when work is likely to start.
