Mrs. Colquhoun

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will consider issuing a circular to local authorities advising them to ensure that public transport is available before they build housing estates, or give planning permission for developers to build housing estates, in outlying areas.

Mr. Mulley

Advice on this subject was issued on 2nd July 1973 in Circular 82/73 entitled "Bus Operation in Residential and Industrial Areas".
