HC Deb 23 July 1968 vol 769 c52W
35. Mr. Ridsdale

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will take steps to amend the Land Commission Act to help elderly people on small fixed incomes.

Mr. MacDermot

Levy is payable where development value has been realised. It is not practicable to make exemptions based on the individual circumstances of persons liable to levy, but the Commission is willing to consider requests for payment by instalments if there is difficulty over payment.
