§ Mr. MacCollMy right hon. Friend intends that when the Rent Bill 1965 has become law its provisions will be given intensive publicity. A free leaflet summarising the provisions of the Bill will be available through local authorities and Citizens' Advice Bureaux. More detailed information will be given in a question and answer booklet which will be published by Her Majesty's Stationery Office and will be available from bookshops everywhere, at 9d. A team of mobile cinemas will also be used to publicise the inauguration of the new Rent Assessment machinery as this is brought into operation in the various registration areas.
