asked the Minister of Health why his Department failed to consult with the Ministry of Education before approving requisition by the Sutton Coldfield Corporation as a site for temporary bungalows of the major portion of the playing-field of the Hollies Collegiate School; if he is aware that the war agricultural executive committee undertook that the land, recently growing potatoes, should be restored at the end of the war to its normal condition; and whether, in view of the recommendation that the school should retain at least a football pitch area, he will reconsider his consent to the requisition.

The authorisation to which the hon. Member refers was given before I took office after full consideration of the owner's objection and consultation with the Planning Officer. I have no power to reconsider the decision.
