HC Deb 17 May 1966 vol 728 cc216-7W
74. Mr. Mapp

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will institute an inquiry to consider what additional powers would be necessary to ensure that industrial buildings and industrial sites conform to modern standards in respect of physical decay, continued neglect, lack of good husbandry and injury to environmental amenities.

Mr. MacColl

Local authorities already have powers to deal with dangerous and dilapidated buildings and derelict sites.
