HC Deb 11 July 1973 vol 859 c339W
28. Mr. Hastings

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the average cost per caravan of gipsy sites since the coming into force of the Caravan Sites Act 1968.

Mr. Graham Page

In order to obtain full information it would be necessary to make inquiries of the 48 local authorities which have provided such sites. But as an example, at a site for 12 caravans recently opened at Pepperstock, Bedfordshire, the cost per pitch was £2,500, plus a further £1,250 for the land element.
