§ 2. Mr. Sparksasked the Minister of Health which local authorities have requested the adoption in their areas of the Furnished Houses (Rent Control) Act, 1946; and how many orders he has issued under Section I and for what areas.
§ Mr. BevanThree hundred and eighty-six local authorities have informed me that they wish to have tribunals and I am circulating the list in the OFFICIAL REPORT.
