HC Deb 28 March 1968 vol 761 c321W
66. Dr. Winstanley

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if, in view of the need to reduce agricultural imports, he will advise local authorities to make additional land available for the provision of allotments.

Mr. Skeffington

Local authorities are under a statutory obligation to ensure that enough land is available for those who want allotments. My right hon. Friend will be willing to take up any particular case the hon. Member has in mind with the authority concerned.
