20. Commander MARSDEN

asked the Minister of Transport whether he can make a statement as to the present position of the application of the London Power Company, Limited, to the Electricity Commissioners for consent to instal three additional boiler units in the new Battersea power station?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

My right hon. Friends the Minister of Health and the First Commissioner of Works, concur with me that there is no objection to the removal of the present restriction on the output of the new Battersea Station and to the sanctioning of the three additional boiler units, subject to the Fulham conditions as to the avoidance of nuisance; and I have informed the Electricity Commissioners accordingly.

22. Sir HENRY JACKSON

asked the Minister of Transport whether it is proposed to publish the Report of the Government Chemist's Committee on the process and plant which is being adopted at the Fulham power station for the treatment of chimney gases?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

I am arranging for the report of the committee to be presented to Parliament and published as a Command Paper.
