HC Deb 28 July 1955 vol 544 c204W
Mr. Rees-Davies

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government when a decision will be forthcoming on the inquiry affecting the question of the compulsory purchase order for acquisition or otherwise of properties in the area of King Street, Margate; and whether, having regard to the delay since 2nd September, 1954, the date of the hearing of this inquiry, he will make a statement as to the cause thereof.

Mr. Sandys

This case has given rise to special difficulties which needed close consideration. My decision will, however, be given shortly.

Mr. Collins

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Gocernment the number of compulsory purchase orders in the administrative County of London which have been modified or for which approval has been refused by his Department in each of the three years ended 31st March, 1948, 1954 and 1955, respectively.

Mr. Sandys

This information is not readily available.
