HC Deb 30 July 1946 vol 426 c153W
128. Mr. S. Marshall

asked the Minister of Town and Country Planning if he has received the report of the Advisory Committee on the Greater London Plan; if he proposes to publish it; and what action he intends to take on it.

Mr. Silkin

This report has reached me so recently that I have not yet been able to consider what action to take or whether to publish it. All I can say at the moment is that I am most grateful to all who have been concerned with the report for the speed and the spirit of co-operation with which this difficult task of reconciling the views of 143 local authorities has been undertaken; and particularly to the hon. and learned Member for Montgomery (Mr. C. Davies) who has so ably guided the deliberations of the Committee.

Mr. Driberg

asked the Minister of Town and Country Planning if he has received the final report of the Advisory Committee on the Greater London Plan; if he proposes to publish it; and what action he proposes to take in the light of its recommendations.

Mr. Silkin

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to the hon. Member for Sutton and Cheam (Mr. S. Marshall) today, of which I am sending him a copy.
