§ Mr. Dunnasked the Minister of Agriculture whether, arising out of recent legislation, he will now give special consideration to the problem of land drainage within the area of the River Rother?
Mr. HudsonAs my predecessor indicated in reply to a Question put by the hon. Member on 3rd August last, the drainage scheme which is being carried out by the Yorkshire Ouse Catchment Board provides for the improvement of the River Rother but this work cannot be undertaken until more progress has been made with the work now proceeding on the River Don.
