HC Deb 26 July 1968 vol 769 c252W
Mr. Maxwell-Hyslop

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will make a grant to the appropriate local authorities to pay for the replacement of the pedestrian footbridge over the River Culin at Uffculme, which was swept away in the recent floods.

Mr. Greenwood

The cost of replacing the bridge will be taken into account, together with the rest of the local authority's expenditure on the repair of public services, for the purpose of determining the question of special Exchequer grant.
