§ 83. Mr. Awberyasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he is aware of the large quantity of water pumped to waste from the Severn Tunnel daily; and if, in view of the shortage of water in the surrounding districts, he will inquire into the possibility of utilising this water for domestic or industrial purposes.
§ Mr. SandysI understand that all water which is surplus to the needs of British Railways and other present users, is likely to be taken up by industrial firms with whom negotiations are going on or are in prospect.
