HC Deb 29 June 1950 vol 476 c2441
31. Mr. Manningham-Buller

asked the Minister of Health when it is anticipated that a piped water supply will be provided in the village of Great Houghton, Northamptonshire.

Mr. Bevan

I have authorised the immediate starting of work on a scheme put before me last week for giving a temporary supply to the village. A permanent scheme is being considered.

Mr. Manningham-Buller

Would the right hon. Gentleman do what he can to get the Mid-Northamptonshire Water Board, for which he has some responsibility, to provide information of this character, which was asked for so long ago as 21st March?

Mr. Bevan

Yes, I will make inquiries.
