Part of the debate – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 12 Mai 1947.
I wish to put a question arising from the right hon. Gentleman's last sentence about repayment in whole or in part. I rather antici- pated from his earlier remarks that the development charge levied would not exceed the amount of compensation paid by the local authority. If that be the case, of course, there would be no question of more than a payment from the Central Land Board to the local authority and no balance would remain for the Central Land Board. That should be the case, and the development charge should not exceed the amount of compensation.
