Sir J. Rodgers

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what. steps he intends to take to ensure that houses compulsorily acquired for development purposes are purchased at market prices.

Mr. Mellish

The only exception to this rule at present is in respect of houses found to be unfit for human habitation., and on that I cannot at present add to what was said when the Housing (Slum. Clearance Compensation) Act, 1965 was being considered by Parliament.
