§ 23. Mr. PARKINSONasked the Minister of Health whether, before coming to a decision with regard to making an order under Section 46 of the Local Government Act, 1929, for the compulsory absorption of the parish of Woldingham into the Caterham Urban District, he will take into consideration the fact that the distance from Woldingham village to the council hall, Caterham, is about four miles, and that the bad transport service in this area will prevent the representatives from Woldingham attending to their public duties in a satisfactory way?
§ The MINISTER of HEALTH (Sir Hilton Young)I have already made and communicated a decision in this matter after full consideration of all the facts of the case. I am advised that communication between the parish and the urban district is better than it is with the headquarters of the rural district council.
