HC Deb 19 October 1973 vol 861 cc325-6W
Mr. Sutcliffe

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will expedite action to alleviate noise nuisance and pollution suffered by residents adjacent to the A19 Teesside diver- sion works in particular, by double glazing the houses of those worst affected, under the provisions of the Land Compensation Act 1973.

Mr. Speed

The contractor is taking all reasonable steps to keep dust nuisance to a minimum. Formal offers to the householders badly affected by construction noise will be made in the very near future.
