HC Deb 23 September 1948 vol 456 c138W
84. Mr. J. Lewis

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that persons in the Bolton area who are being charged with high rents for furnished rooms have no means of appeal, as no tribunal under the Furnished Houses (Rent Control) Act, 1946, has been set up in the area; and if he will set up a tribunal without delay.

Mr. Bevan

I have not previously received representations that a tribunal is needed in Bolton. In view of the statement in the Question, I am communicating with the local authority in the matter.
