HC Deb 14 March 1923 vol 161 cc1560-1
81. Mr. SEXTON

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that the rents of allotments have been increased by the Wallasey Council to approximately £20 an acre; that the council are considering the question of letting the Wallasey golf links at an annual rental of 46s. per acre: and whether, having regard to the view of the allotment holders that their allotments are a recreation, he will inquire intro the reason for the considerable difference in the rents for these two forms of recreation?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

These matters are within the discretion of the town council, and I have no authority to intervene.
