HC Deb 27 May 1930 vol 239 cc981-2
29. Sir R. HAMILTON

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether it has been decided to appoint a fresh chairman to the advisory committee on Rivers Pollution in the place of the late Sir John Findlay?

Mr. W. ADAMSON

The answer is in the affirmative. I have appointed Sir William Whyte, who was Clerk to the late Middle Ward District Committee of Lanarkshire, to be Chairman of the Scottish Advisory Committee on Rivers Pollution Prevention in room of the late Sir John Findlay. Sir William Whyte has been a member of the committee since its inception.

Mr. DUNCAN MILLAR

Is the committee at present sitting and taking any evidence?
