§ 11. Mr. Gibsonasked the Minister of Town and Country Planning what is the total sum collected for development charges under the Town and Country Planning Act.
§ Mr. DaltonUp to the end of June, £3,500,000 had been collected and, in addition, £2,960,000 had been set-off against claims on the £300,000,000.
§ Mr. GibsonIn view of the miserable amount of development charges which have been collected so far, in relation to the £300 million that the Act provides shall be given to landlords, is it not time that the Government did something with this particular Section of the Act?
§ Mr. DaltonIf it is such a miserable sum, I am astonished at the amount of grumbling and complaint about the collection of it.
