to the National Building Agency and its services in this respect.
Circular 41/65—House Improvement—Administrative Procedures.—The principal effect of this Circular dated 5th May,
1965, is that in future the Exchequer contribution will be paid in
respect of discretionary and standard improvement grants in which
