§ 28. Mr. ROWNTREEasked the Minister of Munitions what steps are being taken to secure that in those cases in which permanent dwellings are erected for the housing of munition workers good town-planning standards are adhered to, more especially in regard to the giving of ample frontages to secure air and light and the provision of garden space around the dwellings, so that the members of the families of munition workers may be enabled to cultivate food for their own consumption?
§ Dr. ADDISONIt is impossible within the limits of an answer to a question to give the particulars for which my hon. Friend asks, but I can assure him that due regard is paid, in connection with the Ministry's permanent housing schemes, to the considerations he raises, so far as they are consistent with the necessity for economy and for rapid construction.
§ Dr. ADDISONThey are recommended to the Local Government Board in the first place, and they are inspected.
