HC Deb 23 May 1968 vol 765 cc119-20W
47. Mr. Awdry

asked the Minister of Transport when he will make a statement about the Government's study of the future of the Severnside area as a possible site for Maritime Industrial Development.

Mr. Bob Brown

As explained to the hon. Member for Bristol, North East (Mr. Dobson) on 3rd April, the areas which the consultants were asked to consider in greater detail include sites on both sides of the Severn estuary. When we have studied their report, we can decide whether to undertake a full economic and technical study of one or more sites.— [Vol. 762, c. 106.]
