HC Deb 05 May 1981 vol 4 c35W
Dr. David Clark

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to take a decision on the inspector's report of the inquiry into the dumping of nuclear waste in the Northumberland national park.

Mr. Giles Shaw

The inspector is still preparing his report of the inquiry which followed a refusal of planning permission to carry out geological test drilling in the Northumberland national park. A decision cannot be expected for some time yet.
