My right hon. Friend has no statutory powers to exercise direct control over these pools. As stated in my answer to a previous question the Public Health Act, 1875, gives a right of entry to the local authority or any of their officers for the purpose of ascertaining whether any nuisance exists, and my right hon. Friend proposes to call attention to these powers in his next annual report, which will shortly be issued.
