HC Deb 01 August 1946 vol 426 c227W
32. Sir G. Fox

asked the Minister of Health why no sites have been chosen for the building of houses at Fritwell, Ploughley rural district area, Oxfordshire; when it is anticipated building will commence; and when a piped water supply will be laid on to the village, as the water is unfit for drinking.

Mr. Bevan

The site at Fritwell originally proposed by the Ploughley Rural District Council for the building of houses was considered unsuitable on planning grounds. Another site has recently been submitted for approval but it is not yet possible to say when building will commence. With regard to the last part of the Question, I understand that the parish is included in the scheme for a piped supply of water which the Rural District Council have under consideration but I am unable to say when the supply will be afforded.
