Abstract
LAST summer, the Government issued a White Paper on water policy in Great Britain, which was dealt with, in connexion with related current discussions, in Nature of August 5, 1944, p. 159. Since then, there have been frequent references to the subject in Parliament and elsewhere, showing that public opinion was alive to the many vital issues involved. Recently a committee of the Institution of Civil Engineers has produced a valuable “Report on the Government White Paper on a National Policy”, and now the Government itself has brought before the House of Commons a Water Bill, where it was subjected to vigorous discussion.
