§ Mr. Speedasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will make special financial provision for Warwickshire County Council to help meet the cost of providing the necessary services in the large-scale Chelmsley Wood Development.
§ Mr. K. RobinsonI appreciate the work being done by the county council to provide the necessary services at Chelmsley Wood. Estimates put forward by the county council about the effect of this provision on the rates have been considered recently, but I cannot accept that they show that the burden will be unduly heavy. I have however told the county council that I am willing to look at the matter again should the burden prove to be substantially heavier than expected.
