§ Mr. J. Griffithsasked the Minister of Fuel and Power if he has now received the Report of the Committee on the Severn Barrage; and if he will indicate the nature of the Report.
§ Sir S. Reedasked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether the Report of the expert committee appointed to examine the scheme for a barrage and hydro-electric installation on the Severn has yet been received; and, if so, what measures are proposed to give effect thereto.
