I am shocked that any Government would play around with revaluation for party political purposes. However, that is the sort of history that the Conservative party has. I referred to 1956, not 1955, but I believe that the Government managed to string matters out until April 1963. Revaluations can get delayed for too long. I understand why, for the reasons that my hon. Friend the Member for Colne Valley (Kali Mountford) outlined so eloquently, there should be some deferral but I urge my hon. Friend the Minister for Local Government to heed history and not delay revaluation for too long.
