§ Sir Dudley Smithasked the Secretary of State for the Environment why he has refused to see a deputation representing Warwick town council, the National Farmers Union, the Warwick Preservation Society, local residents' associations and others in connection with Warwickshire county council's decision to locate an industrial technology park in an agricultural and tourist area.
§ Mr. TraceySince my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State had already decided not to intervene in this matter, and that decision had been conveyed to Warwickshire county council, to have seen a deputation in those circumstances might have given rise to false expectations.
