HC Deb 28 November 1984 vol 68 cc512-3W
70. Mr. Freeman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether any water authority proposes to introduce further trials, or complete introduction, of compulsory universal metering within their areas; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. MacFarlane

I understand that a number of water authorities are looking at the possibility of metering trials within their areas. I refer my hon. Friend to the answer I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Welwyn Hatfield (Mr. Murphy) on 19 November at column 31.
