Mr John Train: .... To-day, when we are town planning, what is the first thing we have to look for? We ought to town-plan by the watersheds of the country. You go to the watershed and you have an outlet for the sewage and can build sewage purification works. Having got the contour of your land, you find where the water supply is coming from, and then you have something to build round for the public health...
Mr Thomas Johnston: ...supply, over £8,000,000; electricity supply, apart from the ordinary operations of the Central Electricity Board and electricity undertakers, £14,000,000; gas supply, £2,500,000; sewers and sewage disposal, £20,300,000; land drainage and reclamation, over £4,000,000; canals, £500,000; sea defence, £1,500,000; parks, recreation grounds, etc., £2,500,000; civic buildings,...
Sewage Scheme, Belper.
Mr Andrew McElwee: Will the hon. Lady inquire, or advise the Minister of Health to inquire, as to the amount of fat that is extracted from sewage disposal works, and whether it is being used in the manufacture of margarine?
Sewage Scheme, Northampton.
Rear-Admiral Tufton Beamish: ...words "upon this day six months." I am asking the House to decide that this Bill ought to receive further consideration before it becomes an Act. It is a Measure to provide for the discharge of the sewage from a large portion of the county of Middlesex into the river Thames. After all, the Thames is a piece of national property, it is not the property of the Middlesex County Council for...
Sir Stafford Cripps: ...occupier, clearly nothing can come in. Whichever view you take, they are outside the unit and not in it. Similarly, if one takes the question of sewers. Sewers, the moment they are connected up and sewage is flowing through them, will become a different unit, and will not be part of the unit on which the house is built at all, because they will be in the occupation of the local authority,...
Mr Joseph Westwood: ...directly interested in probation work. That work, if it is to be successful, requires the human touch of those who are specially interested in it rather than of those who are more concerned with sewage schemes, housing schemes and the many other problems of local government. If it is the intention of the Amendment to create these probation committees as statutory committees of the local...
Sir Stafford Cripps: ...person is entitled to use it, will come in as part of the value. Sewers and drains in the road will be in a different position altogether. Immediately these are connected up to the houses and carry sewage they become the property of the local authority, and therefore they cease to be part of the land unit at all and will never come into the value as works. I am assuming that we are dealing...
West Middlesex Sewage Scheme.
Oral Answers to Questions — Aldershot Camp (Sewage Treatment).
Mr John Gilmour: ...are seeing new housing schemes and we are seeing introduced into those housing schemes sanitary provisions which were unthought of in the days that lie behind, but the problems of dealing with the sewage and avoiding deposits from our great works, whether they are old-established or new industries, are problems of great magnitude and press no doubt with great severity upon some local...
Mr. W. ADAMSON: I am informed that on 9th June Paisley Town Council approved of proceeding with a scheme for the relief of unemployment involving the construction of sewage purification works at an estimated cost of £400,000. Plans are being prepared and application for assistance will shortly be made to the Unemployment Grants Committee. Negotiations are taking place for the acquisition of...
Mr James de Rothschild: ...enough, inasmuch as they do not mention roads which have been taken over by the local authority. The Solicitor-General explained to us, when this question was being considered in Committee, that sewage and drainage which are part of a local authority's scheme can be in cluded in a valuation. But this cannot apply to the case of a road. It may be intelligible as far as public roads are...
Sir Charles Edwards: I understand that the county council are proceeding to acquire the land referred to for sewage disposal works under the powers vested in them by the Middlesex County Council Act, 1931. My right hon. Friend has no power to intervene in the way suggested by the hon. Member, but representations have already been made to the council and he is assured that the council will treat the allotment...
Reverend Roderick Kedward: ...help unless the rates exceed 10s. I have discussed it with my friends, and there is not a single agricultural parish which will come in under such a regulation. In rural parishes where there is no sewage scheme or water supply or any amenities, the rate cannot go up beyond 10s., and yet all these will be cut out. The rates in many of the rural parishes range from 5s. to 7s., and I do not...
Sewage Disposal, Aldershot.
Mr Arthur Greenwood: ...monstrous growths upon the face of the earth are places of which no one can approve, and it is clear that there ought to be no large-scale development for residential purposes without effective sewage disposal and adequate water supply. The impression that Members would obtain from my hon. Friend's speech was that nothing has been done and nothing is being done, and, indeed, he implied...
