HC Deb 27 March 1934 vol 287 cc1816-7
62. Mr. WHITE

asked the Minister of Health if he is considering any steps to enable the procedure of local inquiries by representatives of the Ministry of Health under the Housing Act, 1930, to be replaced by a speedier system in order that slum clearance schemes may be expedited?

Mr. SHAKESPEARE

The procedure must be consistent with assurance to all parties concerned that their reasonable interests are fully and fairly considered. Subject to that condition the acceleration of procedure is a matter that receives constant attention.
