§ 55. Sir J. Langford-Holtasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government, in view of the undertaking given to the hon. Member for Shrewsbury on 9th March, 1965, that work on the water supply to Vennington, Shropshire, would be begun without avoidable delay and his statement on 7th December, 1965, that work would commence in 1966, what delays subsequently occurred; when the 325W work was commenced; and when it will be completed.
§ Mr. K. RobinsonMy right hon. Friend did not give such an undertaking or make such a statement. As my hon. Friend, the Joint Parliamentary Secretary, indicated in reply to a Question on 19th July, 1966, the start and subsequent progress of work on the Vennington scheme had by then become matters for the West Shropshire Water Board, to whom I would refer the hon. Member.
