§ Mr. Arnold Shawasked the Secretary of State for the Environment, in view of the concern of the parents of the children of Uphall School, Ilford, which adjoins the Laporte chemical complex and where oxidation of cyclohexane is carried on, whether he will have discussions with the firm over a possible resiting of the works.

§ Mr. John SilkinI do appreciate my hon. Friend's concern, but the course of action he suggests is in the first place a matter for the Redbridge Borough Council, as both local education and planning authority, to consider. It will no doubt take into account the advice given on problems of this sort in the Department's Circular 1/72.
