HC Deb 23 January 1973 vol 849 cc146-7W
Mr. Kinnock

asked the Secretary of State for Wales why there is continued delay in the purchase of the disused railway line at Longbridge Field, Risca, Monmouthshire, in view of the desire of the Risca Urban District Council and Monmouthshire County Council to expedite the purchase of this land for industrial development from the British Railways Board.

Mr. Peter Thomas

I am not aware of any obstacle to an early settlement of this matter, which is for direct negotiation between the parties concerned.
