HC Deb 14 July 1970 vol 803 c162W
56. Mr. David Stoddart

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will maintain the policy regarding the proposed expansion of Swindon.

Mr. Channon

Last April the local authorities concerned, Swindon Borough Council, Wiltshire County Council and the Greater London Council, were asked to prepare a joint management scheme to administer the further expansion of Swindon to a population of about 200,000 by 1986. I will consider this in the light of the authorities' proposals.
