HC Deb 22 November 1928 vol 222 cc1893-4
53. Major CARVER

asked the Minister of Health if he has any further information regarding the nuisance caused by the cement works at Melton, East Yorkshire, regarding which complaints have been repeatedly made by the inhabitants of the surrounding villages?

The MINISTER of HEALTH (Mr. Chamberlain)

The chief alkali inspector has recently visited the works. It appears from his report that unremitting efforts are being made by the company to solve the problem of the emission of dust, and that the provision of a high chimney is also being considered.
