§ RECREATIONAL FACILITIES AT WATER UNDERTAKERS' RESERVOIRS AND OTHER WATERS
§
Lords Amendment No. 23: In page 21, line 38, at end insert:
( ) Where, by provision contained in, or having effect under, any enactment concerning a reservoir or other waterway owned or managed by statutory water undertakers, some other statutory water undertakers are liable to contribute to the costs of constructing, operating and maintaining the reservoir or other waterway, the undertakers may make arrangements for sharing any expenditure incurred in, and any receipts arising from, the exercise of the powers conferred by this section.
§ Mrs. WhiteI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment.
This is to meet the situation in which a. reservoir might be undertaken by more than one authority. Although it is more usual that it should be under the control, management or ownership of one authority only, situations have arisen in which the construction is a joint effort. There is one instance of it at the moment to which our attention has been drawn. Therefore, it seems that the provisions of the Clause should be shared, if so desired, and financial arrangements should be made accordingly between the respective undertakers.
§ Question put and agreed to.
