HC Deb 19 June 1975 vol 893 c523W
Mr. Shersby

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if his Department has any plans for felling trees at the Admiralty Research Laboratory at West Drayton; whether the advice of the local authority has been obtained; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John

For security reasons it is thought necessary to clear an area on either side of the boundary fence. The property owners concerned are being fully consulted and the hon. Member will be informed of the outcome.
