HC Deb 19 November 1946 vol 430 c92W
170. Mr. Touche

asked the Minister of Town and Country Planning how many local residents have been appointed to the Advisory Committee in connection with the proposed new town at Crawley-Three Bridges; and whether he proposes to increase such local representation.

Mr. Silkin

One member of the committee lives at Crawley and another member was born there and is familiar with the district. In making any further appointments which may be necessary, I shall continue to give due weight to the possession of local knowledge, as well as to all other qualifications.
