HC Deb 06 July 1971 vol 820 c359W
Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish his proposals for expansion of the road programme as a White Paper.

Mr. Peter Walker

No.

Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT the new road schemes he added to the preparation pool on 23rd June, together with, in respect of each scheme, the names of the towns expected to benefit significantly by reduction in traffic.

Mr. Graham Page

For the list of schemes I would refer the hon. Member to the Answer that my right hon. Friend gave to his hon. Friend the Member for Exeter (Mr. John Hannan) on 23rd June. It would not be practicable to list all the towns which will benefit from these improvements.—[Vol. 819, c.288–292.]
