§ Mr. Costainasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what statistics he proposes to publish regarding the operations of local rent officers and rent assessment committees.
§ Mr. CrossmanI propose to publish figures of the number of applications received by rent officers and the number referred to rent assessment committees. In each category the number of cases not entertained or withdrawn will be shown; also, in the case of applications decided, the number of decisions involving approval, reduction and increase in the rents previously paid. I will also give the number of applications supported by a certificate of fair rent.
