HC Deb 21 December 1965 vol 722 cc389-90W
Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government how many orders he has made to bring into operation Part II of the Rent Act, 1965; in respect of what areas they have been made; and what further orders he contemplates making in the near future.

Mr. Crossman

I have made an Order to bring Part II of the Rent Act, 1965, into operation in Greater London on 3rd January, 1966. I shall make further Orders as soon as enough rent officers and rent assessment panel members have been recruited in their respective areas, and I hope that the whole country will be covered by the spring.
