HC Deb 03 December 1957 vol 579 cc25-6W
75. Captain Pilkington

asked the Minister of Works how much litter was collected from Hyde Park during the last summer; and how this compares with previous years.

Mr. Molson

I have no record of the amount of litter left in Hyde Park during the summer as a whole. Over the Easter, Whitsuntide and August Bank Holiday week-ends this year about 9½tons of litter were collected in Hyde Park; the corresponding figure for last year was 7½tons and for 1955 8¼ tons.
