HC Deb 31 October 1955 vol 545 c80W
Mr. Mikardo

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he is aware that there has been for some time an emission of smoke and other solid matter from the chimney of West Reading Laundry, Reading, of such a volume as to constitute a nuisance to residents in the neighbourhood; and what action he proposes to take.

Mr. Sandys

I understand that the Reading County Borough Council, with whom statutory responsibility in this matter rests, are in touch with the management of the laundry about ways and means of improving the position.
