Mr. Morgan

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will give details of the water budget agreed for the intake of water for the impounded lake behind the Cardiff bay barrage; what water abstraction rights he has agreed for the Blackweir offtake for the Cardiff dock feeder with the Cardiff Bay development corporation, the National Rivers Authority and Associated British Ports; and what impact those water abstraction rights have been assessed to have on prospective water quality and availability in the projected lake behind the barrage.

Mr. Hague

The details of the water budget are an operational matter for the corporation and I will ask the chief executive to write to the hon. Member and will arrange for a copy of his response to be placed in the Library.
