HC Deb 01 April 1919 vol 114 c1071
68. Brigadier-General COCKERILL

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether, in connection with any general scheme of housing and town-planning, he will consider the advisability of providing a sufficient supply of houses specially designed to meet the requirements of disabled men, e.g., provided with lifts, etc., and, in appropriate cases, grouped as garden cities, so as to afford such men the fullest possible amenities in their home life and easy access to their work?

Major ASTOR

My right hon. Friend will be glad to consider any practical proposals in the housing schemes submitted by local authorities for giving effect to the hon. and gallant Member's suggestion.
