Mr. Lomas

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will refer the recent increases in rents in Huddersfield to the National Board for Prices and Incomes.

Mr. Greenwood

The reference to the Board is of the reasons for, and phasing of, increases in rents of local authority housing, with particular reference to certain authorities. The Board are not precluded from examining increases by authorities not specifically named in the reference, but it is not proposed to add further auhorities to that list.
