HC Deb 06 December 1911 vol 32 c1552W
Sir ROBERT PRICE

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether his attention has been drawn to the danger to health which is caused to the inhabitants of Postwick, near Norwich, by the deposit by the corporation of Norwich of both sewage and dry refuse; and whether the Department can do anything to improve this state of affairs?

Mr. BURNS

I have given close attention to this matter, and have twice directed a visit by an inspector of the Board to inquire into it. The corporation are now taking steps to remove any cause of nuisance from their sewage farm, and they have improved the conditions under which the refuse is deposited.
