HC Deb 16 November 1948 vol 458 cc202-3
46. Mr. Hurd

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that the uncertainty about possible development charges under the Town and Country Planning Act is holding up necessary factory extensions on land held for this purpose; and if he will hasten a decision.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer (Sir Stafford Cripps)

I hope to be able to make an announcement on this point very shortly.
