§ Colonel Baldwin-Webbasked the Minister of Health with reference to the possibility of sewering the district of Iron-bridge and Jackfield, whether the local authority have consulted an outside expert as well as the Ministry; when they did so and with what result; and what progress is being made with a view to the sewering of the area?
§ Sir K. WoodSo far as I am aware, the local authority have not consulted an outside expert. A scheme for sewering this area has been considered from time to time, but the local authority have not seen their way to proceed with it owing to the heavy cost involved.
