HC Deb 03 November 1976 vol 918 c604W
55. Sir Thomas Williams

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what proposals he has for the conservation of water to safeguard against the future possibility of drought in the Warrington area.

Mr. Marks

None. Responsibility for the management of water resources in the region lies with the North West Water Authority. I understand that Warrington is no more vulnerable to drought than is the region as a whole.
