§ Sir A. Bossomasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will arrange for his officials to consult with those of other Departments concerned and with local authorities, to consider the desirability of requiring that in large buildings in the future whose users will require parking space in the immediate vicinity of that building, provision should be made for this in an upper basement in the original drawings submitted for planning approval.
§ Mr. SandysIt is already the practice of planning authorities to require parking space to be provided in appropriate cases. I am giving further study to the whole matter in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation and with the local authorities most closely concerned.
