HC Deb 14 June 1967 vol 748 cc89-90W
94. Mr. John Lee

asked the Minister of Transport if she will take steps to accelerate the progress of the compulsory purchase of land required for the Reading by-pass; and if she will make a statement on this scheme.

Mr. Swingler

We are pressing on with the statutory processes leading to the compulsory purchase of land for the section of the M4 Motorway south of Reading. We hope to publish the subsidiary Orders relating to this section in two or three weeks. The final require- ments for the compulsory purchase of land will not be known until these Orders have been made.
