HC Deb 22 November 1966 vol 736 c259W
Mr. Prior

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what is his policy with regard to the siting of industry on good agricultural land.

Mr. MacColl

My right hon. Friend's policy is that the desirability of preserving good land in agricultural use should always be among the many factors weighed up when development proposals of any kind are being considered in farming areas.
