HC Deb 16 February 1965 vol 706 c198W
Mr. Temple

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government when the working party composed of officials in local government appointed by his predecessor to look into housing subsidies reported to him; and when he will publish a report on the recommendations made by that working party.

Mr. Crossman

I received the report in October after taking office. The working party's task was not to make recommendations but to provide a factual basis for a review of housing subsidies and finance in consultation with the associations of local authorities. Any question of publication must await the completion of these consultations.
