§ Mr. Greenwayasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will call in plans for the proposed termination of the projected Hayes bypass at the White Hart roundabout, Northolt, before a final decision is made; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr.Giles ShawThe proposed Hayes bypass will be a metropolitan road and therefore the responsibility of the Greater London council. It will be for the local planning authorities concerned to determine the planning applications when they are made. My right hon. Friend sees no justification on the evidence currently before him for intervening in this matter. However, when the GLC' makes the necessary statutory orders these will have to be referred to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Transport for confirmation.
