HC Deb 18 July 1961 vol 644 c114W
62. Mr. Callaghan

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what progress has been made with the installation of a new sinter plant and electrical precipitators at the Guest Keen works in Cardiff with a view to reducing the grit and dust nuisance caused to the residents of Splott, Cardiff; and if he will make a statement on the general position.

Mr. Brooke

Plans for a new sinter plant have not yet been submitted to the Alkali Inspectorate. The first stage in erecting electrical precipitators for open hearth furnaces should be completed in a few months and should produce an improvement; the second stage should be completed in the spring of 1962.
