§ 59. Mrs. Mannasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what steps he has taken to give oral or written information concerning the new Rent Act; and where this information can be had.
§ Mr. MaclayAs I informed the hon. Lady on 25th June, I had a booklet published setting out in question and answer form the main provisions of the Act as they affect Scotland. This can be obtained for 6d. from H.M. Stationery Office and from most booksellers and newsagents. In a circular of 14th June, I asked local authorities to do everything they can to assist people affected by the Act. I have also asked citizens' advice bureaux to provide information to the public, and on 17th June I gave a short broadcast talk on the Act.
