HC Deb 06 March 1958 vol 583 c143W
85. Mr. Osborne

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what proposals alternative to the main recommendations of the Heneage Committee have now been agreed by the associations concerned with land drainage; and, in view of the widespread dissatisfaction in north Lincolnshire over drainage rates, if he will now make a statement on the Government's proposals in this matter.

Mr. Godber

My right hon. Friend is not yet in a position to make any statement on the discussions now proceeding with the associations concerned with land drainage on possible alternatives to the main recommendations of the Heneage Report.
