HC Deb 09 June 1920 vol 130 cc392-3
40. Major MACKENZIE WOOD

asked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the fact that great delay has been caused to private builders through the non-fulfilment of promises by the Government to supply them with building materials on the same terms as local authorities, he will take steps to have the period during which the housing subsidy may be earned prolonged beyond the end of the present year?

Dr. ADDISON

I cannot accept the statement contained in the first part of the hon. Member's question. I will consider the suggestion contained in the second part.
