§ Mr. Andersonasked the Secretary of State for Wales how long the appeal by Wooton Roadstone Ltd. against the West Glamorgan county council's refusal to grant permission for the extraction of sand and gravel from a site at Llansamlet, Swansea, has been pending; and when he expects to announce his decision.
§ Mr. Michael RobertsThe company made two appeals in respect of proposed development of this site; one on 1 November 1979 and one on 4 February 1981. The first was held in abeyance at the company's request until November 1980 and both appeals are now being considered together by way of written representations.
The exchanges of the parties' representations were completed in August 1981; an inspector visited the site on 22 September and his report is now being considered. A joint decision will be issued as soon as possible.
