§ 66. Mr. Randallasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs, in view of Her Majesty's Government's developing policy of increasing financial assistance to private industry, what proposals he has in mind for assisting local authorities whose financial burden increases as a result of the financial and fiscal policies pursued, together with expansion of local services welcomed, by Her Majesty's Government.
§ Mr. H. BrookeThis matter was fully debated in the House on 25th February. Exchequer aid to local authorities in-creases with increase of burden. It also takes special account of needy areas.
