Lieut.-Colonel MASONasked the Minister of Health what was the output per day last July and August of the Merton Abbey well and the Streatham Park well, which the Metropolitan Water Board propose to sell to the Croydon Corporation?
Sir H. YOUNGI am informed that the average daily output for these two months was slightly less than 1,000,000 gallons for the Streatham Park well. The Merton Abbey well was worked for 13 days in July, when the average daily output was 1,360,000 gallons, and for the whole of August when the average daily output was 1,620,000 gallons.
