§ Sir K. WoodYes, Sir. I am communicating with the Manchester Corporation with a view to arrangements being made to provide a pure supply at an early date.
§ Mr. MacLarenIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Manchester Corporation is a little afraid to put this waterway in because the owners of the land have threatened to put up its value if the waterway is put in?
