§ 36. Mr. R. Brooman-Whiteasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he will consider issuing a circular to local authorities in Scotland encouraging some standardisation of practice in the publication of lists showing the claimants to whom houses have been allocated and the categories, or points rating, under which the respective allocations have been made.
Commander GalbraithA recommendation on this subject by the Scottish Housing Advisory Committee was brought to the notice of local authorities in May, 1950, and a further circular seems unnecessary.
§ Mr. Brooman-WhiteIs my hon. and gallant Friend aware that there appears to be considerably more satisfaction in areas where such lists are available for public inspection? Is it not important, not only that justice should be done, but that every facility should be given to the public to assure themselves that justice is being done?
