§ Mr. GreenwoodI have arranged to discuss this whole problem with the Development Corporation, Birmingham and Worcestershire in the next few weeks.
§ Mr. Danceasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he is satisfied that all the problems which will arise if the 15,000 houses planned to take overspill from Birmingham are superimposed on an existing balanced community have been considered by Her Majesty's Government; and if he will make a statement.
