§ Mr. William Priceasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government whether he is satisfied with the rate of registration of common land by local authorities; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. SkeffingtonWell over two-thirds of the reputed commons and greens had been registered by 1st July last. I am awaiting information from registration authorities about progress up to 1st April. When this has been collated, I will write to my hon. Friend.
A new poster, designed as a further reminder that applications for registration must be made by 2nd January, 1970, has recently been distributed for display by local authorities and in post offices.
