HC Deb 16 June 1920 vol 130 c1244
27. Mr. DONALD

asked the Minister of Health when the Select Committee will be set up to deal with rents of shops and business premises; whether on report of this Committee It is intended to introduce a new Bill or amend the Town Tenants Act; and meantime what protection will business men have who have come to the end of their lease and have established a business, yet have received notice of ejectment without any hope of alternative accommodation?

Dr. ADDISON

I hope that the Select Committee will be set up within the next few days. I cannot of course say what steps will be taken as the result of their inquiry until they have made their report.
