asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether, in view of the Government's decision to permit the use of heavier lorries on the roads of the United Kingdom, he will implement as soon as possible the scheme, already approved by his Department, for the "detrunking" of the A494 trunk road within the town of Ruthin, Clwyd.

I have asked Clwyd county council as our agent authority to prepare the necessary plans for this to be done.
