HC Deb 04 February 1974 vol 868 cc220-1W
Mr. Pink

asked the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what evidence he submitted to the planning authority on the proposed golf course for naval personnel and their families at Southwick Park, relating to the consequent dispossession of the present tenant farmer and loss of agricultural land.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

My Department provided the local planning authority with an appraisal of the agricultural factors which it would need to consider, together with the other planning factors, when determining the application. These included the damaging effects which the loss of this tenanted land would have on the whole farming enterprise.
