HC Deb 02 August 1951 vol 491 c246W
98. Mr. Ellis Smith

asked the Minister of Local Government and Planning what recent action has been taken to minimise the pollution of the air over Stoke-on-Trent and to deal with the effects created by the tileries.

Mr. Lindgren

The officers of this Ministry and of the Ministry of Fuel and Power are in close touch with the industry. Research is going on all the time into the designing of new kilns, and advice and instruction are being given on the most efficient methods of firing the existing ones.
