§ Mr. Cooper-Keyasked the Minister of Health what measures are being planned to provide main water supplies to the country areas in the Parliamentary borough of Hastings; and by what date it is estimated that each of these projects will be completed.
§ Mr. BevanSchemes are being discussed or designed to improve water supplies in the parishes of Ashburnham, Battle, Brede, Brightling, Broomhill, Dallington, Fairlight, Guestling, Icklesham, Mountfield, Pett, St. Thomas the Apostle Winchelsea, Sedlescombe, Watlington and Westfield. I am afraid that I am unable to estimate when all these schemes will be completed.
§ Mr. Cooper-Keyasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware of the distress occasioned in the area of Brede, Sussex, by reason of the lack of a main supply of water; whether he is able to give a firm date as to when this district will have such supplies made available; and what are the factors that are delaying the project.

§ Mr. BevanI am aware of the position in Brede, but improved supplies cannot be brought to the parish until the mains to serve Guestling and Icklesham have been laid. I hope that the Brede supply will he provided within two years.
