HC Deb 24 November 1938 vol 341 cc1964-5W
Sir A. Southby

asked the Minister of Health whether, in view of his reply to a question by the hon. and gallant Member for Epsom on 17th February that the quinquennial re-valuation for local taxation was to be postponed for two years, he is aware that some local authorities are now proceeding with re-valuation of properties as if no postponement had been announced; and, further, is he urging local authorities to have their new lists completed by next year?

Mr. Elliot

The local authorities referred to by my hon. and gallant Friend are no doubt continuing to prepare provisional valuation lists for the reasons given in a circular issued by my predecessor in March, a copy of which I will send him.
