HC Deb 05 June 1934 vol 290 cc758-9
53. Sir G. FOX

asked the Minister of Health the names of the 23 parishes whose water schemes have been approved for grant and the individual value of the grants; and also the names of those parishes which have submitted schemes with regard to which no decision as to grant has yet been reached?

Mr. SHAKESPEARE

As the lists are long, I will, with permission, circulate in the OFFICIAL REPORT the names of the 23 parishes and of a further 15 parishes for which schemes have been approved for grant, and the amounts of grant provisionally allocated to them, and I will send my hon. Friend a list of the 259 parishes for which applications have been made and are being investigated.

Mr. LEVY

Can the hon. Gentleman give us the total amount of the grants made up to the present time?
