§ Mr. Barry JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will visit the proposed itinerants' camp at the Gresford-Pulford bypass to meet residents to discuss plans to establish an itinerants' camp; and what representations he has received on this matter.
§ Mr. Nicholas BennettThe proposal has been referred to my right hon. Friend for determination. It would not therefore be appropriate for him to visit the site or meet the local residents. They will however have the opportunity at the inspector's discretion, to express their views at the public local inquiry to be held on 16 July.
My right hon. Friend has received 27 representations, one of which included a petition of 770 signatures and 22 letters, all opposed to the proposals.
