HC Deb 12 May 1976 vol 911 cc172-3W
Mr. Shersby

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will introduce legislation to enable local planning authorities to place a stop notice on the unauthorised use of land or premises in cases where planning permission has been refused but an appeal to the Secretary of State is pending.

Mr. John Silkin

My right hon. Friend intends to do so as soon as a suitable opportunity occurs.
