HC Deb 05 November 1975 vol 899 cc211-2W
60. Mr. Moonman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make a statement on the proposed legis- lation for the transfer of assets in new towns.

Mr. John Silkin

While I welcome the recommendation in the Thirteenth Report of the Expenditure Committee that firm proposals to achieve the transfer of housing should be brought forward at an early date I must ask my hon. Friend to await the Queen's Speech on the opening of the new Session of Parliament.
