HC Deb 15 June 1948 vol 452 c37W
Sir H. Morris-Jones

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware of the lack of supply of water in Denbighshire, particularly in the areas covered by the Nant Conway, Aled and Hiraethog Rural District Councils, and the effects of the lack of supply on this widely scattered agricultural community; and what steps he is taking pending the construction of a large scheme by the Denbighshire County Council to give some immediate relief to these areas.

Mr. Bevan

Yes. I have already approved some temporary schemes for affording supplies of water in areas to be served by the proposed Regional Llyn Conway scheme where these temporary schemes can be incorporated in the Regional scheme. I have also approved some local scheme for the provision of water in areas which will not be covered by the proposed Regional scheme. I am prepared to consider any further proposals on these lines which the authorities may put forward.
