§ Mr. J. GARDNERasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that although official sanction was given to a scheme of work on a surface-water drain in Letchmore Road, Stevenage, some months ago, the work has not yet been commenced; and whether this delay is attributable to his Department?
§ Mr. GREENWOODThis scheme has been under the consideration of the district road engineer and the Ministry of Transport. That Ministry's report was received by me on the 15th instant. Sanction to the loan for the work for which the local authority applied was issued by my Department on the same day.
