HC Deb 22 May 1906 vol 157 cc1123-4
MR. MORTON (Sutherland)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Admiralty what are the terms of the instructions that have been issued in regard to the discharge of crude sewage from H.M.S. "Actæon" into the Medway, with a view to obviating danger of contamination to the adjacent oyster layings; and in what manner it is proposed to regulate the discharge, so as to avoid such danger.

THE SECRETARY TO THE ADMIRALTY (Mr. EDMUND ROBERTSON, Dundee)

If my hon. friend will permit, I propose to hand him a copy of the instructions issued by the captain of the † See (4) Debates, clii., 503. "Actæon." If, on reading them, he desires the subject to be further considered, he will perhaps confer with my hon. friend the Civil Lord.
