§ Mr. AMMONasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that at Hemel Hempstead the borough council have modified the preliminary town plan by dezoning 10 acres in a residential area for factory purposes; that the council's procedure in dezoning this area has been called in question by certain of its members as being ultra vires; that acute opposition has been caused amongst residents of Hemel Hempstead, who have been afforded no opportunity for making effective protest; and will he withhold his assent from the scheme until the objections of its opponents have been considered and met?
