§ Mr. CroslandI am not yet in a position to make a statement, except to say that the savings will not be found from the housebuilding programme.
§ 27. Mr. Macfarlaneasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what recent response he has had from local authorities in answer to his circular requesting a cut in expenditure for the year 1975–76; and if he is satisfied with progress so far.
