§ Mr. Lambornasked the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) when he last authorised an inspection of Nun-head Cemetery under Section 8 of the Burial Act 1855;
(2) what representations he has received on the condition of Nunhead Cemetery;
(3) what action he has taken to require the owners of Nunhead Cemetery to keep the cemetery in good condition and repair.
Mr. Eldon GriffithThe condition of this cemetery has been brought to my notice by the Southwark London Borough Council, the right hon. Members for Bermondsey, Dulwich, and others, and I understand that the council is considering possible solutions to the problem. I am well aware of the neglected state of this cemetery and a visit by an inspector of the Department is not necessary.
