§ 49. Sir M. Stoddart-Scottasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs if he will seek to resolve the dispute between the Claro Water Board and the Ripon and Pateley Bridge Rural District Council, in order to expedite the supply 93W of piped water to the village of North Stainley, and in order that public money, which has already been expended, is not wasted.
§ Mr. H. BrookeI have no immediate jurisdiction. But I now understand that there are good prospects of an early settlement of the dispute.
