70. Mr. Morley

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many applications for planning permission that fell outside county council structure plans he received in 1987.

Mr. Waldegrave

Local planning authorities are required to notify my right hon. Friend of any planning application which would materially conflict with or prejudice the implementation of any of the policies or general proposals of the structure plan but which they intend to approve. Some 342 such applications were referred to him in 1987.

75. Mr. Batiste

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many planning applications for 3,000 houses or more have been called in by him within the last 12 months or are now under consideration by him with a view to calling in; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Waldegrave

One such application was called in; and another is currently unde consideration for call-in.
