HC Deb 24 June 1926 vol 197 cc533-4
21. Mr. GREENE

asked the Minister of Health whether, in a case where a local authority is negotiating for the purchase of land and where sanction by a Government Department is required although no State moneys are involved, the assistance of the district valuer is available?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

In the case referred to, the assistance of the district valuer is available. He may furnish a valuation but can negotiate only where State funds are involved.
