§ 2. Mr. Sparksasked the Attorney-General how many actions for possession of premises to which the landlord and 857 Tenant (Temporary Provisions) Act, 1958, applies have been entered in county courts in the Metropolitan police area; how the actions have been disposed of; and how many of these actions were entered in the Brentford County Court.
§ The Attorney-GeneralI am obtaining this information, and will circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT when it is received.
§ Mr. E. FletcherIs the Attorney-General aware that in a great many cases in Islington disappointingly short periods of relief have been granted by the courts—in the majority of cases, only one month—before the eviction order takes place? Is he aware that this is quite contrary to the expectations held out by the Minister when the Bill was discussed in this House?
§ The Attorney-GeneralI do not see anything about Islington in this Question.
