HC Deb 13 May 1969 vol 783 cc200-1W
Mr. Anderson

asked the Secretary of State for Wales to what extent his Department is assisting in the re-establishment of Offa's Dyke.

Mr. George Thomas

If my hon. Friend is referring to the creation of the Offa's Dyke long-distance route, responsibility for this rests with the local authorities. If he is concerned about the condition of the Dyke, parts of it are already protected under the Ancient Monuments Acts, and I am now having its whole length reviewed to consider whether any further action is needed.
