HC Deb 25 November 1970 vol 807 cc142-3W
82. Mr. Roy Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what consideration he has given to proposals for major port development schemes in the Bristol Channel; and when his decision is likely to be announced about such proposals.

Mr. Peyton

I announced on Tuesday, 17th November, that the Bristol West Dock Scheme had been authorised under Section 9 of the Harbours Act, 1964. There are no other major port development schemes in the Bristol Channel awaiting my consideration.
