HC Deb 03 August 1966 vol 733 c145W
Mr. William Price

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will seek to amend the Rating Relief Act so that people who have lived together for more than five years may qualify for the full rebate even though they are not blood relatives.

Mr. MacColl.

No. My right hon. Friend does not think that such a change is advisable and it would involve drawing some very difficult distinctions.
