40. Mr. Evelyn King

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he will introduce legislation to enable the Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration to investigate the administrative actions of local authorities.

Mr. Peter Walker

No, but I shall be studying the results of the current consultations between my Department and the local authority associations about a possible independent ombudsman system for local government.
