HC Deb 28 February 1917 vol 90 c2050W
Mr. PETO

asked the Secretary to the Local Government Board whether, in view of the necessity of economising paper, he will consider the propriety of advising Metropolitan and local urban authorities to instruct householders to save all waste paper, and not to mix it with household refuse or burn it, and to recommend that the authorities should collect it at regular intervals for transmission to the paper mills?

Mr. HAYES FISHER

My Noble Friend hopes to issue a circular on this subject in the course of a few days.
