§ Sir WILLIAM COLLINSasked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been directed to complaints made of nuisance arising by noise and otherwise from the working of an electric sub-station of the London County Council in Arlington-road, St. Pancras; 1456W whether this station has been inspected on behalf of the Board of Trade; whether the working of the station is in accordance with the Board of Trade Regulations; and whether the Board have suggested, or will suggest, any action with a view to abate the nuisance complained of?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLThe sub-station in question has not been inspected on behalf of the Board of Trade, and is not liable to such inspection, nor is its working subject to Board of Trade Regulations. I have however, asked the London County Council for their observations on the nuisance stated to exist, and shall be happy to communicate their reply to my hon. Friend.
