HC Deb 24 January 1958 vol 580 c219W
Mr. Sydney Irving

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what progress has been made with the reorganisation of Bevan's Works, Swanscombe, to allow the installation of four electrostatic precipitators.

Mr. H. Brooke

Considerable progress has been made with the site works, despite the extremely difficult nature of the ground, which will necessitate building the four precipitators and the 350 ft. chimney on piles. Half of the piles for the chimney have now been driven, and foundations for the steelwork for the new kiln-feeding equipment are under construction.
