§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he is aware that the North Norfolk District Council is considering delivering its local rate demands other than through the Post Office at a saving of between £800 and £900; and whether, in view of the need for economy and reduction in rates, he will issue a general circular to all local authorities to examine the possibility of adopting this method of saving for ratepayers.
§ Mr. OakesNo. It is for local authorities to decide how to run their own affairs in matters like this.
