HC Deb 24 June 1969 vol 785 c230W
Mr. Lubbock

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will make an order under the Public Bodies (Admission to Meetings) Act, 1960, adding the boards of new towns to the schedule of bodies to which this Act applies.

Mr. K. Robinson

No. I do not think this would be appropriate in view of the confidential nature of many of the financial, commercial and property matters with which Development Corporations have to deal.
