HC Deb 17 June 1948 vol 452 c72W
66. Mr. Palmer

asked the Minister of Health why local authorities in London are permitted to supply tenants with information provided by the Rating and Valuation Acts in order that they may ascertain their position under the Rent Restrictions Acts while outside London the local authorities are not permitted to supply this information.

Mr. Bevan

This London rating provision, which is being repealed by the Local Government Act, 1948, is in no way connected with the Rent Restrictions Acts. The latter Acts include provisions enabling a tenant to ascertain his position under them.
