HC Deb 21 November 1974 vol 881 cc482-3W
Mr. Roderick

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will issue a circular to local authorities telling them to advertise locally for householders to register at their offices if their property is not connected to mains sewerage, in order to save administrative effort in trying to obtain this information.

Mr. Denis Howell

No. It will be the responsibility of the appropriate local authorities and the water authorities together to decide how best to identify the properties in question.
