HC Deb 06 December 1966 vol 737 c254W
Mr. Ian Lloyd

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what proposals he has for reducing the present time lag between the report of an inspector after a public local inquiry into a planning appeal and a final decision on that appeal by himself.

Mr. Greenwood

The organisation for handling appeals within the Ministry has been strengthened, but I am also considering more radical changes which would involve legislation. I hope to make an announcement before long.
