§ 84. Mr. Sumnerasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what directions or advice he has given to urban district councils for the disposal of refuse; and how far each such authority is permitted to decide for itself between tipping and other methods of disposal, such as incineration.
§ Sir K. JosephMy right hon. Friend has given no general directions or advice, but any individual authority seeking advice is given it. In suitable conditions, properly controlled tipping often has economic and other advantages, but each local authority must decide which method of disposal is best suited to local circumstances.
