HC Deb 27 May 1954 vol 528 c41W
60. Mr. Paget

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department the reason for refusing to take action upon a petition to install a polling station on the Sunnyside Estate, Northampton.

Sir D. Maxwell Fyfe

I decided not to issue a direction because I did not find sufficient grounds to justify me in this instance in overriding the decision of the responsible local authority.
