§ Mr. Alexander Wilsonasked the Secretary for Energy if he can make an approximate estimate of when the public inquiry on the Selby area coal development will finish its work; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. OakesI have been asked to reply.
The public inquiry into the application by the National Coal Board for planning permission to establish a drift mine 433W in the Selby area finished on 6th June. The inspector who held the inquiry has since been making an inspection of the area involved and will now prepare his report.
