HC Deb 16 March 1908 vol 186 c196
SIR J. DICKSON-POYNDER (Wiltshire, Chippenham)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board, if he can state the day on which he proposes to introduce the Housing Bill.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. JOHN BURNS,) Battersea

I cannot at present fix a day, but I hope to introduce the Bill at an early date.

MR. WATT (Glasgow, College)

Can the right hon. Gentleman say if this Bill will include Scotland—the land of his birth?

MR. JOHN BURNS

I have hope in that direction.
