HC Deb 30 July 1963 vol 682 c37W
37. Mr. Edelman

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs whether he will amend the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order, 1950, which enables a building already used for a public purpose to be automatically granted permission for some changes of use, in view of the number of those which have been adapted as bingo halls and similar places of diversion, to the detriment and general inconvenience of local residents.

Mr. Corfield

No. Each class consists of a number of uses of land or buildings which are similar from a planning point of view.
