HC Deb 31 January 1992 vol 202 c721W
Mr. Speller

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will give urgent consideration to the application by Devon county council for funding of the Barnstaple downstream bridge and the western link.

Mr. Chope

No such application has been made. The county council's current transport policies and programme document shows that it does not propose to start construction of this scheme until the year 2000.
