§ Mr. SCRYMGEOURI am asked, on behalf of the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Councillors of the City and Royal Burgh of Dundee, to present a petition asking that the Government may see fit to continue till May, 1930, the provisions of the Increase of Rent and Mortgage Interest (Restrictions) Act, 1920, as amended by the Act of 1923 and the Act of 1925, which last-mentioned Act expires in 1928; as the Petitioners are of opinion that housing accommodation is not such as would justify any other course being followed.
