THE EARL OF MACCLESFIELDasked His Majesty's Government, when they propose to abate the public nuisance 574WA caused by the dumping of photographic chemicals from the R.A.F. station at Benson in a pond in the parish of Roke, which nuisance has been the subject of correspondence between the Bullingdon Rural District Council and the Air Ministry and the Ministry of Health.
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR AIR (VISCOUNT STANSGATE)The use of this water for the disposal of chemicals has been discontinued, and the pond, which was located in a quarry, is being filled in. I am sorry that earlier attempts to deal with this nuisance were unsuccessful.
House adjourned at ten minutes past five o'clock.
