HC Deb 29 May 1956 vol 553 cc1-2W
37. Mr. Ness

Edwards asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government why he has refused sanction for the Gellygae Urban District Council to build a public convenience and shelter in the valley town of Tuphie, which would cost only £1,000.

Mr. Powell

Because of the Government's decision to place an embargo for the time being on local authority loans for all but the most urgent purposes.
