have been submitted to him by each of the London boroughs in each of the last five years, and how many he has confirmed.

Mr. Corfield

Yes. The following table shows the number of orders submitted in these years by metropolitan borough councils which were made under Housing Act powers, since these are by far the most numerous. If the hon. Member has in mind orders for other purposes than housing, and will let me know, I will do my best to provide the information.
