54. Mr. Buck

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will now authorise the Essex County Council to approve the Turner Road site in Col- chester for the development of a new general hospital.

A proposal for the development of this site is being considered by Essex County Council in accordance with the procedure for dealing with development by Government Departments. My right hon. Friend will be ready to give his opinion without delay, if and when he is consulted.
