§ 31. Sir Stanley Reedasked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether a decision has yet been reached on the recommendation of the expert committee's report on the Severn Barrage Scheme to construct a new tidal model, and to give the dock authorities the opportunity of being represented on a committee of hydraulic experts who would supervise the construction and operation of the new model.
§ Mr. ShinwellNo decision has yet been reached upon the Severn Barrage Report.
§ Sir S. ReedWill the Minister look into this matter again to see that all the time and money devoted to this inquiry is not short-circuited by the small cost of the model which is recommended in order to complete this project?
§ Mr. ShinwellAs soon as I get an opportunity, I will see what can be done.
