HC Deb 20 February 1973 vol 851 c68W
Mr. Joel Barnett

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if, in the light of representations made to him on behalf of local authorities, he will take steps to postpone the new rate revaluation; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Rippon

No. The local authority associations have not asked for the revaluation to be postponed.
