HC Deb 07 August 1947 vol 441 cc173-4W
29. Mr. R. A. Butler

asked the Minister of Health whether he will give a report of the latest progress in preparing for the installation of a piped water supply in the area of the Halstead Rural District Council.

Mr. Bevan

A local inquiry will be held when the proposed sources have been tested. One source has recently been proved to be satisfactory, and trial boring on another site will be commenced when the materials are delivered.
