§ MR. ASHLEY (Lancashire, Blackpool)I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that the London County Council have recently erected a power station on the Meridian, close to Greenwich Observatory; that the vibration caused by the engines and the smoke interfere with the use of instruments; and whether it will be possible in the future to rely on observations taken there for the purpose of the Nautical Almanack.
§ * MR. EDMUND ROBERTSONThe matter is receiving consideration.
