§ 48. Sir C. Osborneasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government why he has refused to allow the Grainthorpe Parish Council to sell £700 of its own 3 per cent. savings bonds, in order to help pay for a playing field project that is badly needed in the village, and which is to be run by a voluntary organisation, details of which have been sent to him by the hon. Member for Louth.
§ Mr. MacCollGrainthorpe Parish Council has made no further request since the hon. Member raised this question on 6th December last year. If the Council can advance good reasons for acquiring the field now, my right hon. Friend will reconsider the decision.
