§ 61. Mr. E. BROWNasked the Minister of Health whether he has received any representations from urban or rural district councils or other bodies as to the increasing number of hoardings for bill-posting being erected and the probable effects on the rateable value; and if any powers will be given to local authorities in this matter?
§ Mr. WHEATLEYI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given on the 26th ultimo to the hon. Member for South-East Essex (Mr. Hoffman).
§ Mr. BROWNDoes that include an answer to the last part of my question—if any powers will be given to local authorities in this matter?
§ Mr. WHEATLEYThe answer to which I have referred my hon. Friend was, I think, to the effect that there is now a Bill before Parliament proposing to give these powers.
