To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is the latest completion date for the M40.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

The M40 between the M42 and Warwick and between Warwick and Wendlebury should be completed by autumn 1989 and the end of 1990, respectively. Completion of the section between Wendlebury and Waterstock will depend on the statutory procedures. We hope to make an announcement shortly.
