HC Deb 17 July 1941 vol 373 c714
27. Mr. Brooke

asked the Home Secretary whether he can yet say when further powers relating to fire-prevention measures in unoccupied houses will be made available?

Mr. H. Morrison

It is intended to submit, at a very early date, to His Majesty in Council for approval a draft Regulation on this subject. The actual application of the powers of the Regulation will be by an Order to be made under the Regulation, and the drafting of this Order is being pressed on with all possible speed.
