HC Deb 08 February 1979 vol 962 cc291-2W
Mr. Geoffrey Finsberg

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he is satisfied with local authority services in the London borough of Southwark.

Mr. Shore

Like other boroughs, I understand that some of the services provided by the London borough of Southwark are being impeded by the present industrial dispute. In particular, refuse collection, road gritting, and burial and crematorium services are affected, but I am not aware that the borough faces exceptional difficulties.
