HC Deb 07 February 1978 vol 943 c514W
Mr. Freud

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (1) when he expects to commence the inquiry into the failure of the flood warning system in Wisbech on the night of 11th January; and whether he will ensure that the opinions of local Wisbech people will be represented;

(2) whether he will now announce the date and location of the inquiry into the failure of the flood warning system in East Anglia on the evening of 11th January.

Mr. Strang

The inquiries to which I referred in my reply of 26th January—[Vol. 942, c.706–7]—relate only to the action taken by the Anglian Water Authority. These are in hand and I shall inform the hon. Member when they are completed.
