Mrs. Butlerasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what review he is making of the total housing needs of the Middlesex conurbation so that adequate arrangements for overspill can be made in good time.
§ Mr. BrookeIn consultation with the planning authorities concerned an up-to-date estimate of overspill from Greater London, including Middlesex, is being prepared. This will take account of the county reports on the 1961 census when these are available, natural growth of population, slum clearance programmes, availability of land, and other factors.
