HC Deb 01 December 1971 vol 827 c114W
Mr. Peter Mills

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment, in view of the problem of unemployment in the south-west of England, if he will authorise the start of the spur road off the motorway to North Devon in order to improve the employment situation and help industry.

Mr. Michael Heseltine

Further preparatory planning work is necessary before the construction of the North Devon link can be considered.
