HC Deb 18 March 1974 vol 870 c26W
Mr. Rose

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will reconsider the decision in relation to the Manchester Piccadilly Victoria scheme.

Mr. Mulley

Expenditure restrictions will not permit a start on construction before 1975, but design on the Picc-Vic system is continuing. The Greater Manchester Council will have to decide whether to include it in its transport policy and programme for 1975–76.
