HC Deb 24 July 1956 vol 557 c25W
87. Mr. Stokes

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the fact that the four houses in Mayfair, particulars of which he already has, are still being used wholly for illegal immoral purposes, some of them with a madame who collects the fees and passes them on to the house owner, he will take steps to have them closed.

Major Lloyd-George

As I have previously informed the right hon. Gentleman, the police have no evidence that these premises are being used illegally. I have no power to have them closed.
