HC Deb 16 June 1971 vol 819 cc86-7W
54. Miss Fookes

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what timetable he has laid down for the discussions between his Department and the local planning authorities on the preparation of structure plans; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Graham Page

The necessary arrangements for discussions with the majority of the further local planning authorities, or groups of authorities, which I announced to the House on 12th May have already been made. Discussions with the remainder are now being arranged. The aim is to hold these discussions during this month and next month.

In the South-East region, the timing of the discussions will be determined largely by the timetable of action needed to follow up the South-East Joint Planning Study.—[Vol. 817, c. 106–8.]
