§ 68. Mr. Hugh Jenkinsasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he is aware that there has been a deterioration in the maintenance of Wimbledon and Putney Commons; and if he will seek to abolish the Conservators established under the Act of 1871 and take the Commons into his care.
§ Mr. Graham PageMy right hon. and learned Friend is not aware of any deterioration in the maintenance of these commons and in any case he has no power to interfere in their management. The answer to the last part of the question is "No, Sir".
