HC Deb 09 March 1964 vol 691 c20W
Mr. Farr

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government and Minister for Welsh Affairs to what extent his regulations give power to local housing authorities to demand the production of accounts before a discretionary improvement grant is paid.

Sir K. Joseph

There is no express power to require the production of accounts and normally no need to do so. Occasionally, however, a local authority may reasonably want additional information before paying a grant.
