HC Deb 10 May 1971 vol 817 cc41-2W
Mr. Laurance Reed

asked the Minister of State for Defence, in view of the fact that there are five submarine cables at the eastern end of the Hurd Deep, if he will cease using this area as an approved dumping ground for unexploded ammunition.

Mr. Kirk

No. The five cables shown on Admiralty charts as running across the eastern end of the Hurd Deep are one mile at least away from the dumping ground.
