HC Deb 25 July 1967 vol 751 c81W
Mr. Whitaker

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will make a statement on the management study of development control.

Mr. Willey

My right hon. Friend has just received a report of the Management Study of Development Control which was commissioned jointly by the Department and the local authority associations in January, 1967. It contains interesting and illuminating suggestions about how the system may be improved. My right hon. Friend will in the first instance be discussing these recommendations with the local authority associations whose co-operation he greatly welcomes.
