HC Deb 25 January 1966 vol 723 c11W
60. Sir J. Maitland

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what charge is made by local water boards to provide and fit a meter to measure the water drawn from a well.

Mr. MacColl

Local water boards have no power to provide water meters except for measuring water that they themselves supply, or for detecting waste in their supply systems.

If the, hon. Member will write and tell me the circumstances which he has in mind, I will give him what information I can.
