§ 62. Sir H. Morris-Jonesasked the Minister of Food whether, in view of the scarcity of hotel accommodation in Colwyn Bay and the hardship entailed by the continued requisitioning of these buildings both to the proprietors and the visiting public in a seaside resort, he is now able to give a definite date when some of these hotels will be released for the use of the public.
§ Sir B. Smith:Following a recent transfer of staff from Colwyn Bay, a substantial number of the buildings previously occupied by my staff there have 197W already been given up; by the end of April the number will have risen to 18, including one large hotel and some smaller hotels and boarding houses. Twenty-two buildings will still be retained. It is not possible to fix a date now for the release of the remainder, but the position is kept under constant review in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Works.
