London Builders' Conference (Activities)

HC Deb 21 October 1952 vol 505 c101W

130. Mr. Bossom

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will direct the Monopolies Commission to inquire into the activities of the London Builders' Conference and other similar bodies throughout the country whose practices are objected to by both the Royal Institute of British Architects, the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors and the Federation of Master Builders, and which increase the cost of housing and building generally.

Mr. H. Strauss

My right hon. Friend will bear this in mind in considering matters for reference to the Commission.
