HC Deb 04 June 1913 vol 53 c897
91. Mr. EDGAR JONES

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether, having regard to the need of Housing Reform in Wales, he is prepared to sanction a Provisional Order, under Section 10 of the Local Government Act, 1888, for transferring the powers of the Local Government Board under the Housing Acts to a central administrative council representing all the county councils in Wales?

Mr. HERBERT LEWIS

I doubt whether the proposal of my hon. Friend could be carried out under the Section.
