HC Deb 01 August 1975 vol 896 c657W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will give an assurance that any proposals that he may be intending to make during the next few weeks on economy cuts affecting matters which fall within the responsibility of his Department will be made before the House of Commons adjourns for the Summer Recess and that this will be done if only on the basis of advising the House of Commons of his intentions if full and complete details of same are not available by the commencement of the recess.

Mr. Crosland

I would always inform the House at the earliest opportunity of any new proposals of this kind.
