§ Captain BOWYERasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware of the number of ejectment orders which are served upon the tenants of business premises nothwithstanding the fact that, owing to the shortage of houses, no other suitable accommodation can be found by the tenant; and will he provide either that all ejectment orders served upon the tenants of business premises be stayed until the shortage of houses has been relieved, or at least that no ejectment order be enforced unless the tenant has been able to find equal accommodation elsewhere for carrying on his business?
§ Dr. ADDISONQuestions affecting the tenure of business premises generally are at present under consideration by a Select Committee of this House, and I may remind my hon. and gallant Friend that the tenants of certain business premises are already protected by the Increase of Rent Act.
