HC Deb 22 December 1964 vol 704 cc222-3W
89. Mr. Reader Harris

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he is aware that, despite the assurances recently given to the hon. Member for Heston and Isleworth by letter, the smell emanating from the Mogden Sewage Works at Isleworth has not abated, and has now become a public nuisance, causing nausea and sore throats to people over a wide area; and what action he will take to rectify this matter.

Mr. Mellish

My right hon. Friend knows that the works are still giving trouble. The county council is installing special deodorising equipment as a temporary expedient until it can get the works operating normally again. The Department's officers have been in close touch and will continue to give all possible help.
