HC Deb 08 December 1975 vol 902 c26W
Mr. Pardoe

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he took, before turning down the appeal by the May Bridge Chemical Company, to satisfy himself that adequate housing existed at Trevillett, Tintagel, for the skilled staff needed by the company to fulfil its potential and to increase its exports.

Mr. Oakes

The company argued as part of its written representations that there was a special need for the dwelling-house which was the subject of this appeal. However, the Inspector to whom the appeal was transferred for his decision did not consider that this was adequate justification for allowing the proposed development in the face of the planning objections to it.
