HC Deb 01 November 1956 vol 558 cc189-90W
Captain Pilkington

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will now make a statement about giving county councils greater control over the activities of standing joint committees.

without modification of the sentence or order ; and in the case of 25 with modification ; in the case of six the conviction or order was quashed ; and 17 abandoned their appeals. I regret that the figures for 1956 are not yet available.

Major Lloyd-George

The County Councils Association have submitted certain proposals to me and I have arranged to discuss them with representatives of the Association in the near future. In the meantime, I have no statement to make.
