HC Deb 28 October 1966 vol 734 c233W
Mr. Gwilym Roberts

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether, in view of the increase in burglary and breaking and entering offences, he will introduce legislation to stipulate that burglar-proof devices must be provided in buildings before a planning authority grants permission to build.

Mr. MacColl

No. That would extend town planning control beyond its recognised scope.
