HC Deb 25 January 1966 vol 723 cc10-1W
58. Sir T. Beamish

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he is aware that, in spite of the advice given by his Department, and the continued fouling of the beaches in the Peacehaven, Telscombe and Saltdean area by sewage from the adjoining authority, the sewer outfall committee to the Brighton Intercepting and Outfall Sewers Board has not recommended any action to solve this problem; if he is aware of the discontent that this inaction has caused; and what action he now proposes to take.

Mr. MacColl

My right hon. Friend has seen a copy of the Sewer Outfall Committee's report, and he is asking the Board to send representatives to the Ministry for a discussion before they reach a decision on the report.
