asked the Minister of Transport when the necessary compulsory purchase order will be made so that work may commence to fence the A.30 between Launceston and Bodmin.

I am in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Land and Natural Resources. We shall publish the required draft compulsory purchase order and notice of intention to give a certificate in connection with the common land affected by this scheme as soon as the status and extent of the land concerned have been determined.
