§ 2. Mr. H. Whiteasked the Minister of Health if he is aware that the Clowne Rural District Council are unable to get an adequate supply of water to certain parts of their area where a pipe line is already laid because of usage by tenants of the newly erected houses, thereby causing great concern because of lack of pressure during a recent fire; and will he take steps to enable this local authority to obtain from Manton Colliery, Worksop, a greater volume of supply for a period of years from that which is now being pumped but is not put to domestic use.
§ Mr. BevanI understand that the Clowne Rural District Council are submitting a scheme to me within the next few days for improving pressure in the areas affected. I will give what assistance I can to enable the Council to obtain any additional water required.
