HC Deb 27 April 1932 vol 265 cc386-7W
Mr. MOLSON

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that on many separate occasions during the last two years the roads of Angmering, in West Sussex, have been dug up for the purpose of putting down pipes in connection with surface drainage, domestic drainage, water supply, or other public services; whether public money has been granted for these developments; what is the total estimated cost; and what proportion is being borne by the various local authorities or by the Exchequer?

Sir H. YOUNG

During the last two years the East Preston Rural District Council, as the responsible sanitary authority, have undertaken combined schemes of water supply and of sewerage and sewage disposal for Angmering and two neighbouring parishes, but I am not aware that roads have been interfered with unduly. The following table indicates the total estimated cost of these schemes for which loans have been sanctioned and how the estimated cost is to be borne:

to his Department within the last 12 months for Army co-operation in the production of British films; and what reply was given in each case?
