HC Deb 01 April 1976 vol 908 cc529-30W
Mr. Stephen Ross

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he is taking to afford public service employees, living in accommodation provided by the employing Department, the same rights as tenants as those proposed for agricultural workers.

Mr. Freeson

The consultative document on abolishing the tied cottage system in agriculture made clear our belief that the problem in agriculture should be resolved in its own right. We have no plans for action elsewhere.
