§ 62. Mr. Manderasked the Minister of Health whether he is now able to declare the policy of the Government with reference to the question of national parks, arising out of the recommendations of the National Parks Committee of 1931?
§ Mr. ElliotI propose to consider this matter in connection with the report on the adequacy of existing planning powers, which I understand will be submitted to me shortly by my Advisory Committee on Town and Country Planning.
§ Mr. ManderIn view of the tremendous national interest in this matter, can the right hon. Gentleman say whether he will be able to make a statement of policy before the House rises?
§ Mr. ElliotNo, I am afraid I cannot do that.
Mr. MenderIn view of the unsatisfactory nature of the reply, I beg to give notice that I shall raise this matter on the Adjournment.
