HC Deb 01 July 1974 vol 876 cc58-9W
Sir P. Bryan

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will seek to ascertain how many households in the areas covered by the Ryedale District Council, the North Wolds District Council, the Goole District Council and the Selby District Council, do not have the opportunity to take advantage of the main drainage system, but are required to pay sewerage rates.

Mr. Denis Howell

This is a matter for the Yorkshire Water Authority which has, I understand, already approached all district councils in its area with a view to establishing arrangements to identify properties not connected to the public sewers.
