HC Deb 21 July 1914 vol 65 c247
38. Sir JOHN SPEAR

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture if, under the Government Housing Bill, police con stables will be regarded as Government employés, and houses be built for them?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

Police constables are not Government employés for the purposes of Clause 2 of the Bill, but there is no reason why they should not occupy houses provided under Clause 1 in agricultural districts.
