HC Deb 15 June 1920 vol 130 c1087
77. Colonel Sir H. NORRIS

asked the First Commissioner of Works whether his Department has made an offer to erect a certain number of houses in Louth, Lincoln; whether such offer has been accepted; and, if so, what is the authority for the Office of Works entering into undertakings of this kind?

The MINISTER of HEALTH (Dr. Addison)

I am arranging that an extension of the Louth housing scheme, which has been rendered urgently necessary as a result of the recent disaster, shall be entrusted to the Office of Works. The scheme will be prepared and carried out by the Office of Works, on behalf of and at the expense of the borough council.
