§ Mr. Wyn Robertsasked the Secretary of State for Wales how much land has been acquired by the Land Authority for Wales; how much land it is proposed to acquire; and at what cost during, the authority's first year of operation.
§ Mr. Barry JonesNo land has been acquired so far, but the authority has served notices of intention to acquire in 18 cases comprising in total 54.9 hectares—136 acres. The approximate cost of this land is just over £1 million. The full cost of all prospective acquisition during 1976–77 is expected to be about £3 million, which includes overheads. Programmes for the next four years are now being prepared.
