§ Mr. Wigleyasked the Secretary of State for Wales, in view of the threat posed to the safety of the villagers of Tremadog in Gwynedd from rocks falling from dangerous rock faces above the village, what action he has taken, or proposes taking, to help safeguard this community.
§ Mr. Alec JonesIt is for the public authorities involved—viz. Gwynedd County Council, Dwyfor District Council and the Nature Conservancy Council—to decide upon the steps to be taken to protect the lives and property of the inhabitants of Tremadog in the light of their consultants' recommendations. I understand that remedial works, estimated to cost £270,000, are to be put in hand as quickly as possible. Officials of the Welsh Office have offered advice and guidance on possible courses of action and are keeping in touch with the situation.
