§ 9. Mr. Hayasked the Minister of Land and Natural Resources if he will provide an arbitration tribunal in the event of disagreement between the Duchies of Cornwall or Lancaster and the Land Commission on the sum to be paid in lieu of levy.
§ Mr. SkeffingtonNo, Sir. My right hon. Friend foresees no need for this.
§ Mr. HayCan the hon. Gentleman say why there is going to be no need for this? Is it not quite feasible and likely that there will be severe wrangles between the highly respectable bodies mentioned in the Question and this rather ridiculous Commission?
§ Mr. SkeffingtonMay I remind the hon. Member that a similar situation might have arisen in connection with development charge in 1947 but no difficulty was experienced between the bodies mentioned in the Question and the Government of that time. We do not anticipate any difficulty now. It is inconceivable that there should be the sort of difficulty which the hon. Member suggests.
§ Mr. H. HyndWill my hon. Friend try to curb the desire on the part of the Opposition to provide more jobs for the legal boys?
