HC Deb 16 May 1966 vol 728 cc197-8W
Mr. Hobden

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what stage he has reached in his consideration of the matter of dealing with sewage in the Brighton area.

Mr. MacColl

I am informed that the Board is considering the extension of the Portobello outfall sewer and the installation of screening and comminution, and has ordered a study of these possibilities by consulting engineers. The Department is keeping in touch and an engineering inspector is to go there shortly.
