Of 3,337 cases submitted to the London Rent Assessment Panel up to 23rd June, 1967, 2,011 have been decided by rent assessment committtees. Of these 464 have resulted in increases of rents being paid at the time of submission, 64 original rents were confirmed and 1,483 were reduced. The rents fixed by rent officers were increased by committees in 942 cases, confirmed in 747 cases, and reduced in 322 cases.
