HC Deb 25 July 1967 vol 751 c74W
19. Mr. Lubbock

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he will introduce legislation giving effect to the recommendation of the Maud Committee that the aldermanic system should be abolished.

Mr. Greenwood

The Committee's many recommendations must now be considered by the Government and by local authorities and their associations. Some of the proposals require legislation but it is too early to comment on this aspect.
