HC Deb 28 March 1955 vol 539 c5W
68. Mrs. Slater

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will take steps to prevent the nuisance arising from the burning of the soil tip of Hanley Big Colliery, Sneyd Green, Stoke-on-Trent.

Mr. Sandys

This is primarily a matter for the local authority. I understand that it is already taking steps in collaboration with the National Coal Board to abate the nuisance.
