HC Deb 08 January 1913 vol 46 c1189
56. Mr. POINTER

asked the President of the Local Government Board if his attention has been called to the Report of the sanitary inspector of the Darfield Urban District Council regarding a house-to-house visitation made by him in the district; whether he is aware that thirty four-roomed houses are each occupied by two families, and that in 102 cases a proper division of the sexes cannot take place; and whether he will bring pressure to bear upon the council to provide adequate accommodation?

The PRESIDENT of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. Burns)

A copy of this Report was received by the Board yesterday in response to a request made by them on the 20th December last, and the matter is receiving attention.
