HC Deb 14 August 1893 vol 16 c118
MR. H. L. W. LAWSON

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether it is proposed, by agreement with the House of Lords on the London County Council (General Powers) Bill, to give the County Councils of Essex, Surrey, Middlesex, and Kent representatives on the Thames Conservancy Board; and whether, if this be so, he will consider the expediency of giving some representation to the other riparian Counties of Bucks, Berks, Gloucester, Oxon, and Wilts by the same method?

*THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. H. H. Fowler,) Wolverhampton, E.

My hon. Friend is probably not aware of what passed in the House on Friday last in reference to this question.
