HC Deb 25 October 1960 vol 627 c240W
58. Mr. H. Butler

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what criteria he employed when stating, in paragraph 6 of his Circular 45/60 to housing authorities in the Greater London area, that some landlords are trying to impose on their tenants terms which are quite unreasonable.

Mr. H. Brooke

The statement referred to was based on evidence which I had received about particular cases. In making it, I had in mind such factors as the age, condition and general character of the property and the neighbourhood, the repairs liabilities and the gross value for rating. Each case has of course to be examined on its merits in the light of all the relevant facts and circumstances.
