§ Mr. Jannerasked the Minister of Works whether he will speed up the derequisitioning of garages and, where there is still a necessity for him to retain some garage accommodation, whether he will requisition those garages in respect of which the owners have considerably increased the rentals recently, owing to the shortage of garages, and derequisition others in their place.
§ Mr. TomlinsonI will communicate with Departments holding garages and I have no doubt that they will release these premises as soon as the maintenance of essential public services permits. 1 regret that I am unable to adopt the suggestion contained in the latter part of the Question.
