HC Deb 18 May 1965 vol 712 c193W
33. Mr. Dodds

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he is aware of the concern arising from the substantial increase in the cost of administration of local government in Greater London resulting from the London Government Act, 1963; and if he will take steps to diminish the burden on the rates.

Mr. Mellish

The reply to the first part of the question is, "Yes". As to the second part I would refer my hon. Friend to my right hon. Friend's speech during the debate on 5th May.
