HC Deb 07 July 1959 vol 608 c119W
84. Mr. Callaghan

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs if he is aware that living conditions are becoming bad in the part of Splott Ward, Cardiff, adjoining Guest Keen Iron and Steel Works due to fumes and grit from the works; and if he will use his powers to require an abatement of this nuisance.

Mr. H. Brooke

I am not aware that conditions have deteriorated, but I am seeing that the position is watched. Since the major processes at these works were brought under the Alkali Act a year ago, the Alkali Inspectorate has been doing its best to make sure that pollution from the works is reduced to a minimum.
