HC Deb 02 August 1966 vol 733 cc66-7W
Mr. Freeson

asked the Minister Housing and Local Government whether he will now publish a circular to local authorities to advise them on how best they can help to establish housing associations and co-operatives.

Mr. Mellish

Local authorities know that my right hon. Friend is anxious that they should do all they can to help and encourage housing associations and he does not think further advice on the subject is called for at present.
