HC Deb 12 May 1938 vol 335 cc1733-4W
Major Carver

asked the Minister of Health whether he can expedite the proposed supply of water to certain villages in the area of the Driffield Rural District Council in the East Riding, where difficulties have arisen; and if temporary measures can be applied to relieve the situation?

Sir K. Wood

A scheme for the whole rural district is being carried out with the aid of Exchequer grant. I am in communication with the council on the possibility of expediting the works and of providing temporary relief measures pending the completion of the works.
