HC Deb 26 January 1972 vol 829 c433W
63. Mr. Iremonger

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has had about transferring the Greater London Council's housing powers to the boroughs; and when he proposes to implement the provisions of the London Government Act, 1963, in this respect.

Mr. Amery

I assume that my hon. Friend is referring to the G.L.C.'s transitional powers to build in a London borough without the consent of that borough. These powers can be terminated by an Order made by the Secretary of State. The London borough councils have made no request for such an order.
