HC Deb 05 February 1913 vol 47 c2223W
Mr. MORRELL

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether his attention has been called to the complaints made by local authorities and others as to the state of the law relating to the disposal of trade effluent; and whether he is proposing to take any steps to carry out the recommendation of the Royal Commission on this subject?

Mr. BURNS

The recommendations of the Royal Commission are receiving my consideration, but I cannot at present say when I shall be in a position to introduce legislation on the subject.
