HC Deb 26 February 1975 vol 887 cc197-8W
Mr. Carson

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many cross-border roads have been cratered since November 1974; what further plans he has to crater other roads; and how many cross-border roads will remain open to the public.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

Seventeen cross-border roads have been blocked since Nov- ember 1974. The extent to which further road-blocking operations are needed in the future will be determined by the security situation. 118 cross-border roads are open at present.
