Concerning the prize question on leather tanneries, 1755.
Is it not possible, by establishing a chilled beef industry, to develop tanneries, glue factories and other ancillary industries?
Tanneries are normally located in places where there is no other source of employment.
The cause of that pollution was a tannery discharging into the river an effluent with which the local sewerage undertaking was not adequate to deal.
The difficulty is that tanneries discharge an obnoxious substance that affects the water.
The sites of old tanneries that deposited poisons on land for decades are another example.
I am chairman and managing director of a number of tanneries.
Proposals for the establishment of a dry-cleaning business, market gardening, tannery and skin processing and the development of tourism are under consideration.
