asked the Minister of Health if he will consider the desirability of calling a conference representative of both landlords and tenants to consider an agreed-on policy at the expiration of the Rent Restrictions Act, it being understood that the Government would give such policy the force of law?

I am afraid that it would be difficult to convene such a conference, and that even if it were convened it would not be likely to arrive at any agreement., but if my hon. Friend can make any suggestions for arriving at the desired result I shall be happy to consider them.
