HC Deb 16 January 1945 vol 407 cc49-50W
Mr. Parker

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what machinery is proposed for the general overhaul of the present position with regard to financial relations between the Exchequer and local authorities.

Sir J. Anderson

I contemplate that when it is practicable to undertake this overhaul the machinery will take the form of discussions between the Departments primarily concerned and representatives of the associations of local authorities.
