HC Deb 20 May 1966 vol 728 c319W
Mr. Jopling

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether the alternative suggestions to the Manchester Water Order, 1965, put up by the Winster Valley Preservation Society and a consortium headed by the National Trust, were referred to the Surface Water Survey Centre to ascertain whether the suggested yields were realisable; and on what date.

Mr. Crossman

No. My conclusion about them was based on the Inspector's report, of which the hon. Member has a copy.
