§ 43. Brigadier-General SURTEESasked the Minister of Health if he is aware 398 that, arising out of the great demand for property, where valuable businesses have been built up by tenants after years of thrift and labour, shops are being sold over tenants' heads, tenants who are in many cases comparatively poor people, but who are turned out by the new owner without receiving any compensation; what remedy such dispossessed tenants have; if they are powerless to obtain justice; and whether he will consider the advisability of securing such alteration of the law as will make profiteering in land and property impossible?
§ Dr. ADDISONI may refer the hon. and gallant Member to the very full answers I gave on Thursday last to a question by the hon. and gallant Member for Hendon, and to the supplementary questions which then arose. I am not yet in a position to add to what has already been stated in the House.
