HC Deb 27 January 1953 vol 510 c824
30. Mr. Vane

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will modify the control over the selling price of houses built since the war so that, while an effective check is retained against speculation, a vendor is not penalised, as he is at present, where he may wish or be forced to sell his house.

Mr. H. Macmillan

I have this matter under consideration and hope to make an announcement later in the Session.
