HC Deb 20 December 1955 vol 547 c292W
86. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government to what extent he will authorise local authorities to require owners of private streets and roads to repair them in cases where they have fallen into a dangerous condition.

Mr. Sandys

Most local authorities already have power to do this. Those who have not may apply to me for an order to enable them to do so.
