HC Deb 11 August 1966 vol 733 c397W
58. Mr. Gower

asked the Minister of Land and Natural Resources what are the reasons for further delay in the introduction of the measure to change the law relating to leasehold tenure of dwellinghouses; and on what date he proposes to introduce this Bill.

Mr. Willey

The preparation of legislation on such a complicated matter inevitably takes time. As to its date of introduction, I would refer the hon. Member to the replies I have recently given on this point to my hon. Friends the Members for Smethwick (Mr. Faulds) and Lewisham, South (Mr. Carol Johnson).
