§ 66. Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLEasked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been called to the development of certain properties in the West End such as the sites of Grosvenor House and Devonshire House, Westminster, and Hereford Gardens, near Marble Arch, whereby large new populations are housed without regard to the traffic capacity of the serving streets; and when he proposes to introduce legislation to enable developed areas to be re-planned and the population to the acre limited?
§ Mr. GREENWOODI am aware generally of the type of development to which the hon. and gallant Member refers. I hope in due course to introduce legislation for extending town planning powers to developed areas.
§ Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLEWill that legislation be included in the housing legislation which the hon. Gentleman is going to introduce?
§ Mr. GREENWOODAs the hon. and gallant Members is no doubt aware, housing and town planning legislation are now separated into two bodies of Statutes.
