Former MP for Merionethshire
asked the Secretary of State for Wales what progress is being made with the amalgamation of water undertakings in Wales.
Is my hon. Friend aware that, paradoxically enough, water is a burning question and that his reply will give great satisfaction in the Principality?
I am one of them.
asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make a statement on the future of the tourist industry in Wales.
I thank my hon. Friend for that most satisfactory statement which will, I am sure, please everyone in the Principality. May I be allowed to join with him in congratulating Dr. H. T. Edwards on the good work performed by him and wish him well on his retirement from the chair?
I want to support the right hon. Gentleman in what he says, but is he right when he emphasises St. Asaph? I find when I travel in those parts that my difficulty is getting through Abergele.
Would the hon. Member in any circumstances ever go down a mine to work or would he allow one of his children to work in a coal mine?
On a point of order. You will have noticed, Mr. Speaker, that Questions Nos. 8 and 12, in the name of the same hon. Member, are in identical terms, which clearly indicates what is true, namely, that the people of Wales are waiting for some information about this report. Since my hon. Friend is not present to ask these Questions, I am wondering whether an opportunity will be given this...
