HC Deb 29 March 1920 vol 127 c887
85. Mr. ALFRED SHORT

asked the Minister of Health whether any instructions have been issued to local authorities that best bricks and stone are not to be used in the housing schemes?

Dr. ADDISON

No, Sir. No such instructions have been issued: but obviously local authorities will not us" the most expensive materials, where others which are entirely satisfactory for their purpose can be obtained at a lower price.
