24 Mr. Watkins

Mr. Bevan

Twenty-one and 14 respectively.

25. Mr. Watkins

asked the Minister of Health how many outside water undertakings derive their supply from Brecon and Radnor; and which have provisions to supply water to local authorities enroute.

Mr. Bevan

There are eight water undertakings with headworks in Breconshire and one undertaking with headwork in Radnorshire which supply areas outside those counties. All these undertakings have statutory powers to supply water to authorities of areas through which their mains pass.
