HC Deb 28 November 1961 vol 650 c31W
65. Mr. Owen

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs what steps he takes to co-ordinate the application of the Clean Air Act by local authorities; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Rippon

My right hon. Friend intends shortly to call for revised programmes of smoke control from black area authorities. When he has seen the programmes he will consider whether any further steps to encourage co-ordination between local authorities are needed.
