§ 61. Mr. McENTEEasked the Minister of Health whether the advisory committee on London refuse have finished their work and reported; and, if so, what action the Ministry of Health propose to take in the matter?
Sir H. YOUNGThe committee in question have made an interim report dealing with the disposal of house and trade refuse. I understand that the Metropolitan Boroughs Standing Joint Committee, of which the committee in question is a sub-committee, have asked for the observations of the Common Council of the City and of the Metropolitan Borough Councils on the report and, after these have been received, propose to communicate with me.
§ Mr. McENTEEWhen is the report likely to be made available to Members of the House?
Sir H. YOUNGThe hon. Member will understand that the ordinary processes 31 of the consideration of a report are being followed in this case, and, until they are completed, I am afraid I cannot say.
