HC Deb 18 November 1969 vol 791 cc246-7W
108. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he has considered the proposals of the London Borough of Brent to reform its administration; what changes of administrative structure will need his consent; what will be the effect on the block grant of making the savings estimated at £100,000 materialise; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Skeffington

I understand that the council has received but has not yet considered a report by management consultants on the authority's administration. Without seeing the report I cannot say whether it involves changes which require the consent of a Minister.
