HC Deb 06 December 1965 vol 722 cc47-8W
Mr. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether he proposes to exempt certain areas of Wales from the implementation provisions of the Water Resources Act, 1964; and when he proposes to announce the establishment of a boundary line defining the exemption area.

Mr. James Griffiths

Orders have been made exempting underground abstractions throughout most of the Gwynedd and South West Wales River Authority areas, and four of the five other river authorities with areas wholly or partly in Wales are preparing applications to me for Orders. The boundaries of the exempted areas are defined in the Orders.
