HC Deb 01 May 1984 vol 59 c114W
Dr. Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list all those points around England at which raw and untreated sewage is discharged into the sea.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

Exact information on coastal sewage discharges is not at present available centrally. My Department has therefore commissioned the Water Research Centre to undertake a study of the extent and quality of coastal sewage discharges and their effect upon the receiving waters.
