§ Sir P. Macdonaldasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that on 10th December, 1947, representations were made by the Sandown-Shanklin Urban District Council to the War Damage Commission in connection with the restoration and redevelopment of the Shanklin Esplanade for essential information required by the district valuer for his report on the valuation of the properties and sites on the esplanade; that this information is still not available; and as the delay is holding up progress in preparing particulars for consultation with the Ministry of Town and Country Planning, if he will ensure that essential information of this kind is provided with the least possible delay.
§ Sir S. CrippsI regret that I cannot undertake to answer questions about individual war damage cases, but I have 51W asked the War Damage Commission to let the hon. and gallant Member know the position as soon as possible.
