HC Deb 02 December 1968 vol 774 c383W
Mr. William Edwards

asked the Secretary of State for Wales by what authority industrial development is being sanctioned in the Mid-Wales new town.

Mr. George Thomas

Section 3 of the New Towns Act 1965 empowers a new town development corporation to carry out building and other operations for the purposes of a new town; and under Section 6(1) of the Act I have recently approved a proposal of the Mid-Wales New Town Development Corporation for industrial development of a site at Pool Road, Newtown.
