HC Deb 02 December 1970 vol 807 cc379-80W
59. Mr. McElhone

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what guidance he is prepared to give to local authorities who wish to alter plot ratios from the normal standards set down in planning permissions.

Mr. Younger

There are no normal standards for plot ratios. The approval of a particular plot ratio in a specific case is a matter for decision in the light of local circumstances, including the provisions of the local development plan.
