§ Mr. Normantonasked the Secretary of State for the Environment, in view of difficulties experienced by tenants on corporation estates established in adjacent authority areas, whether he will hold an inquiry with a view to recommending improvements in the administration of such housing developments.
§ Mr. FreesonI recognise that special problems can arise for the tenants of these estates and I am anxious that the local authorities concerned should do their utmost to make arrangements in relation to their management to ensure satisfactory representation of the interests of tenants. I understand that the Manchester City Council has had discussions with the local authorities in whose areas it owns estates and that arrangements acceptable to the authorities have been agreed in at least one case. If the hon. Member wishes to let me know what12W particular difficulties he has in mind I shall be glad to consider them.
