§ Mr. Meacherasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will seek powers to limit the practice of local authorities of evicting unsupported mothers for arrears incurred on mortgages by husbands who have left the home.
§ Mr. AmeryI should be surprised if local authorities behave unkindly or unreasonably in matters of this nature. If the hon. Member cares to send me any evidence he has that local authority practice is generally defective I shall be grateful to him.
