HC Deb 06 December 1966 vol 737 c249W
43. Mr. Pardoe

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government why he has instructed Camelford Rural District Council to charge Messrs. Allen Components Limited a rate of interest of 8½ per cent.

Mr. MacColl

The authority was informed that in my right hon. Friend's view a rate of 8½ per cent. was appropriate both to conform with Board of Trade practice and to provide a reasonable return.

Mr. Pardoe

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he sought the advice of the South West Regional Planning Council before instructing Camelford Rural District Council not to lend money to Messrs. Allen Components Limited at 7¼ per cent.

Mr. MacColl

No.
