§ MR. HANCOCKasked the Minister of Health whether he can see his way to include Crown and War Department lands in the provisions of town-planning schemes, in deference to the expressed wish of many rural district councils?
§ Dr. ADDISONI have received a number of representations from local authorities on this subject, and will give the matter my consideration. I am advised, however, that at present I have no authority to approve the inclusion of Crown lands in town planning schemes.
