HC Deb 10 November 1959 vol 613 c37W
101. Mr. G. Brown

asked the Minister of Education what steps he is taking to ascertain the views of local authorities, particularly the smaller authorities, before implementing the recommendations of the Roberts Report on Library Services.

Sir D. Eccles

I have already received and am now considering the views of the County Councils Association, the Association of Municipal Corporations, the Metropolitan Boroughs Standing Joint Committee, the Urban District Councils Association and the National Association of Parish Councils. Rural district councils are not public library authorities.
