HC Deb 30 July 1935 vol 304 c2615

Lords Amendment: In page 17, line 11, at the end, insert: (d) considering the operation of the enactments relating to housing and making to the Department such representations as the Committee think desirable concerning the execution of those enactments in relation to the general housing needs of the working classes.

The LORD ADVOCATE

I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

This is really a drafting Amendment which gives the Committee certain powers to make representations to the Department about the execution of the Acts in relation to general questions affecting the housing needs of the working classes. It adds in a small measure to the powers which were given to the Advisory Committee in the Bill as originally presented.
