§ 90. Mr. Ellis Smithasked the Under-Secretary for the Home Department, as representing the Lord President of the Council, if he can give figures that will enable a measurement of the pollution of the atmosphere to be made over the whole of England and over the cities of Bournemouth, London, Birmingham, Manchester and Stoke-on-Trent, respectively.
§ Mr. de FreitasIt is not possible to give an accurate measurement of the pollution of the atmosphere over the whole of England. Measurements made in London, Birmingham, Manchester, and Stoke-on-Trent are included in monthly bulletins issued by the Fuel Research Station of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research. I am sending the hon. Member copies of these bulletins issued over the past 12 months. No measurements are made in Bournemouth.
