HC Deb 17 February 1953 vol 511 c114W
86. Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of Works if he has studied details which have been sent to him about the waste of time and money caused by filling up application forms for building materials and what action he is taking to make the regulations more simple or to remove them altogether.

Mr. Eccles

I have received the details and will write to my hon. Friend about the particular case to which he has drawn my attention I am always ready to consider means of simplifying such building controls as it is necessary to retain.
