HC Deb 28 November 1967 vol 755 c49W
68. Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he co-ordinates the timing of public inquiries into major planning proposals with regional economic planning councils, where the latter are in course of examining the district concerned.

Mr. MacDermot

Each situation has to be considered on its own merits. In the case which the hon. Member has in mind, I am aware of the study recently initiated by the Regional Economic Planning Council; but I think it best to proceed with the inquiry already arranged.
