§ Mr. Emeryasked the Minister of Health whether steps will now be taken to re-group the boundaries and areas of adjoining local authorities so as to facilitate post-war reconstruction of districts that have suffered war damage?
§ Mr. E. BrownNo, Sir. I do not think this House or the localities concerned would regard the re-grouping of areas as practicable or desirable under present conditions. It is a matter which can only be dealt with in the light of post-war circumstances.
